The Romantic

«Romantic love is mental illness. But it's a pleasurable one. It's a drug. It distorts reality, and that's the point of it. It would be impossible to fall in love with someone that you really saw.»
«Playboy isn't like the downscale, male bonding, beer-swilling phenomena that is being promoted now by (some men's magazines). My whole notion was the romantic connection between male and female.»
«Middle age is when a guy keeps turning off lights for economical rather than romantic reasons.»
«It is the addition of strangeness to beauty that constitutes the romantic character in art.»
«Mozart has the classic purity of light and the blue ocean; Beethoven the romantic grandeur which belongs to the storms of air and sea, and while the soul of Mozart seems to dwell on the ethereal peaks of Olympus, that of Beethoven climbs shuddering the storm-beaten sides of a Sinai. Blessed be they both! Each represents a moment of the ideal life, each does us good. Our love is due to both.»
«Is this not the true romantic feeling; not to desire to escape life, but to prevent life from escaping you.»
«People have romantic notions about television. In the highest realms they think it's some sort of art medium, and it's not. Others think it's an entertainment medium, it's not that either. It's an advertising medium. It's a method to deliver advertising like a cigarette is a method to deliver nicotine.»
«As I gaze upon the sea! All the old romantic legends, all my dreams, come back to me.»
«Music makes one feel so romantic - at least it always gets on one's nerves - which is the same thing nowadays.»
«He must have a truly romantic nature, for he weeps when there is nothing at all to weep about.»
