What you see before you is the result of a lifetime of chocolate.Additional note: Quoteland has received the following communication from John Philip Dayton regarding this quotation: I knew Katharine Hepburn well - produced her last three movies - not sure where you got the quote What you see before you, my friend, is the result of a lifetime of chocolate - but it does not sound like Kate - she might have said it, but without the my friend. This is a phrase I have never, ever, heard her utter, and it would be highly uncharacteristic of her to do so - as far as the chocolate part goes, that, indeed is Kate - Sincerely, John Dayton

Greater than the tread of mighty armies is an idea whose time has come.

Victor Hugo

Instead he felt only love. And that was the miracle. The surge in hatred since the war began had created more love around it. It was indomitable, mad, and everlasting, scattered through the rich and the poor, deep and calm in the Quakers, hot and fierce in the mothers, faithful in the warriors, wistful in the pets, seeping its way into mercy and atrocity, destroying things, rebuilding them.

Kathy Hepinstall

In times when religious or political faith or hope predominates, the writer functions totally in unison with society, and expresses society's feelings, beliefs, and hopes in perfect harmony.

Juan Goytisolo

Wisdom is the abstract of the past, but beauty is the promise of the future.

Oliver Wendell Holmes

Likewise, education can direct people toward good or evil ends. When education is based on a fundamentally distorted worldview, the results are horrific.

Daisaku Ikeda

I think they quite like me when I work because I'm one of the safer directors to back, because even if my films don't bring their costs in back home, once they're shown outside of India they manage to cover the costs.

Satyajit Ray

There are no limits to what science can explore.

Ernest Solvay

She had a hit for every syllable: 'Don't. You. Ever. Talk. To. Me. Like. That. Ever. Again.' That was the last time I ever talked back to Mom.

Misty May-Treanor

You say that in heaven there is eternal beauty. The eternal beauty is here and now, not in heaven.

Osho

Why am I so determined to put the shoulder where it belongs? Women have very round shoulders that push forward slightly; this touches me and I say: One must not hide that! Then someone tells you: The shoulder is on the back. I've never seen women with shoulders on their backs.

Coco Chanel

Sand did not suddenly come into being because we had need for glass and silicone. Neither did wild flowers suddenly spring up because a bunch of environmentalists in Texas wanted alternative ways of helping the world without dumping more chemicals into it - these things were already there.

Stephen Richards

It's not that our family has no taste, it's just that our family's taste is inconsistent.

Dave Eggers
