If I was a woman, I would be dressed in the same thing for a month and just change my hat and gloves. Maybe my shoes too yes, I see what you mean but, really, it's jewels that change an outfit.

While I've had a great distaste for what's usually called song in modern poetry or for what's usually called music, I really don't think of speech as so far from song.

David Antin

You may easily play a joke on a man who likes to argue -- agree with him.

Edward W. Howe

A funny thing happens in real estate. When it comes back, it comes back up like gangbusters.

Barbara Corcoran

We cannot be contented because we are happy, and we cannot be happy because we are contented.

Walter Savage Landor

Be drawn to the visual arts for it can expand your imagination.

Barbara Januszkiewicz

He put a ring in the toe of a stocking. On Christmas Eve, we opened our stockings and it was there at the bottom of the toe. Then he got down on his knees and he was shaking.

Kyra Sedgwick

I believe that history might be, and ought to be, taught in a new fashion so as to make the meaning of it as a process of evolution intelligible to the young.

Thomas Huxley

The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation. What is called resignation is confirmed desperation. From the desperate city you go into the desperate country, and have to console yourself with the bravery of minks and muskrats. A stereotyped but unconscious despair is concealed even under what are called the games and amusements of mankind. There is no play in them, for this comes after work. But it is a characteristic of wisdom not to do desperate things.

Henry David Thoreau, Walden, cha

Without the quest, there can be no epiphany.

Constantine E. Scaros

If only the hat had mentioned a house for people who felt a bit queasy, that would have been the one for him.

J.K. Rowling

If gratitude and esteem are good foundations of affection, Elizabeth's change of sentiment will be neither improbable nor faulty. But if otherwise--if regard springing from such sources is unreasonable or unnatural, in comparison of what is so often described as arising on a first interview with its object, and even before two words have been exchanged, nothing can be said in her defence, except that she had given somewhat of a trial to the latter method in her partiality for Wickham, and that its ill success might, perhaps, authorise her to seek the other less interesting mode of attachment.

Jane Austen

Well, I'm leaning probably toward the sciences like physics.

Amy Carter
