3 December 2020 Rutherford B. Hayes The filth and noise of the crowded streets soon destroy the elasticity of health which belongs to the country boy.
3 December 2020 Lee Krasner With Jackson there was quiet solitude. Just to sit and look at the landscape. An inner quietness. After dinner, to sit on the back porch and look at the light. No need for talking. For any kind of communication.
3 December 2020 Vivienne Westwood I don’t feel comfortable defending my clothes. But if you’ve got the money to afford them, then buy something from me. Just don’t buy too much.
3 December 2020 Georg Baselitz The artist is not responsible to any one. His social role is asocial… his only responsibility consists in an attitude to the work he does.
3 December 2020 Lionel Blue My mother was a modern woman with a limited interest in religion. When the sun set and the fast of the Day of Atonement ended, she shot from the synagogue like a rocket to dance the Charleston.
3 December 2020 M. Night Shyamalan My normal cycle for movies is eighteen months and each part is separate.
3 December 2020 Elihu Root The limitation upon this mode of promoting peace lies in the fact that it consists in an appeal to the civilized side of man, while war is the product of forces proceeding from man’s original savage nature.
3 December 2020 Jack Kevorkian What looks like enjoyment is the sneer of contempt. That’s not a smile.
3 December 2020 Valerie Simpson It’s interesting when you’ve been a partner with someone for so long. So now to sing solo and starting all over again I am learning that I am more bodacious than I thought. I don’t know where it’s coming from but I am glad.
3 December 2020 Guillermo Cabrera Infante I believe that writers, unless they consider themselves terribly exquisite, are at heart people who live by night, a little bit outside society, moving between delinquency and conformity.
3 December 2020 David Herbert Lawrence Ours is an excessively conscious age. We know so much, we feel so little.
3 December 2020 Michael Zaslow When I was younger, many of my romantic escapades were just a means of simply avoiding being by myself. I was afraid of feeling lonely, afraid I wouldn’t know what to say to myself.
3 December 2020 J. Milton Hayes I wrote The Green Eye of the Little Yellow God in five hours, but I had it all planned out. It isn’t poetry and it does not pretend to be, but it does what it sets out to do.
3 December 2020 Dick Dale There’s a saying. If you want someone to love you forever, buy a dog, feed it and keep it around.
3 December 2020 James Dyson When you say ‘design,’ everybody thinks of magazine pages. So it’s an emotive word. Everybody thinks it’s how something looks, whereas for me, design is pretty much everything.
3 December 2020 Chaske Spencer I think people should look at learning about Native American history the same as visiting Washington, D.C., and seeing the monuments there. It’s all part of the package.
3 December 2020 Giacomo Casanova I have often met with happiness after some imprudent step which ought to have brought ruin upon me, and although passing a vote of censure upon myself I would thank God for his mercy.
3 December 2020 Frank Herbert The beginning of knowledge is the discovery of something we do not understand.
3 December 2020 Joe Biden There’s one advantage in having been around as long as I have. Everybody in the Senate knows me, and – I’m going to say something presumptuous, to repeat myself – I think most respect me.
3 December 2020 Tim Pawlenty The only thing growing faster than the federal government’s deficit is Chris Matthews’ man-crush on Barack Obama.
3 December 2020 Nicholas D. Kristof The fact that people will pay you to talk to people and travel to interesting places and write about what intrigues you, I am just amazed by that.
3 December 2020 Manny Pacquiao I’ve already established my (political)machinery. It’s like a car. It’s fixed already. You just have to get in and drive it.
3 December 2020 John Mayer I’ve figured out my learning curve. I can look at something and somehow know exactly how long it will take for me to learn it.
3 December 2020 Alexander Graham Bell What this power is I cannot say all I know is that it exists and it becomes available only when a man is in that state of mind in which he knows exactly what he wants and is fully determined not to quit until he finds it.
3 December 2020 Scott Stapp I just hope it grows into where it was before because I want my son to see it. I want him to have a positive memory of it going forward, so he can be proud of his daddy.
3 December 2020 Alphonse de Lamartine The more I see of the representatives of the people, the more I admire my dogs.
3 December 2020 Lance Burton I always wanted to go to the Chavez school but I could never afford it when I was growing up so a lot of my learning came from magic books and watching other magicians. I was also very lucky that I had a couple of really good magic teachers.
