I really do live for the future, because when I'm eating a box of candy, I can't wait to taste the last piece.

If everybody's not a beauty, then nobody is
Interpretation
Beauty is relative and subjective, and if everyone is considered beautiful, then the concept loses its meaning.
Andy Warhol's quote suggests that beauty is not an absolute quality but rather a concept that relies on contrast and comparison. If everyone is labeled as beautiful, then the term 'beauty' loses its significance, as it can only exist through a spectrum of differences. This idea raises questions about societal standards of beauty and emphasizes the importance of diversity in perceptions of attractiveness.

Ring out the false, ring in the true.
When we judge or criticize another person, it says nothing about that person; it merely says something about our own need to be critical.
We know a thing by its opposite corollary; hot by having experienced cold; good by having decided what is bad; love by hate.
Truly, that reason upon which we plume ourselves, though it may answer for little things, yet for great decisions is hardly surer than a toss up.
