Smile, it is the key that fits the lock of everybody's heart.
Anthony J. D'Angelo

George Sewell
Matrimonial devotion doesn't seem to suit her notion.
W. S. Gilbert

Alexandra Guarnaschelli
If you suppress grief too much, it can well redouble.
Moliere
The rain, which had continued yesterday and last night, ceased this morning. We then proceeded, and after passing two small islands about ten miles further, stopped for the night at Piper's landing, opposite another island.
Meriwether Lewis
As an investor, what we're not looking for is 'oh this is a cool app,' it's 'is this something that can become a big business?' You need to find those that can become real businesses.

Steve Irwin
Sometimes I'm so tired, I look down at what I'm wearing, and if it's comfortable enough to sleep in, I don't even make it into my pajamas. I'm looking down, and I'm like, 'T-shirt and stretchy pants? Yup, that's fine. It's pajama-y, good night.'

Bob Dylan
You know, I get much more Jewish in Israel because I like the way that religion is done there.
Natalie Portman
I film quite a bit of footage, then edit. Changes before your eyes, things you can do and things you can't. My attitude is always 'let it keep rolling.'

Jackie Joyner-Kersee
Commas in The New Yorker fall with the precision of knives in a circus act, outlining the victim.
E.B. (Elwyn Brooks) White
