Wisdom.... comes not from age, but from education and learni... - Anton Chekhov

"In displaying the psychology of your characters, minute particulars are essential. God save us from vague generalizations!"(Letter to Alexander Chekhov, May 10, 1886)"

"Once a man gets a fixed idea, there's nothing to be done."

"There is nothing more awful, insulting, and depressing than banality."

"Any idiot can face a crisis - it's day to day living that wears you out."

"There is nothing new in art except talent."
