I would say that I have a love-hate relationship with almost everything in my life, including stand-up.
~ Chelsea Peretti
If I were to make an uneducated guess about L.A.'s relationship with folk and psychedelia, I would say it must be the weather.
~ Rain Phoenix
Some say I'm an overnight success. Well, that was a very long night that lasted about 10 years.
~ Lisa Morton
People say we were an overnight success. It took us a year to be an overnight success.
~ James Daly
I must say, when I reread myself, it's the poetry I tend to look at. It's the most exciting to write, and it's over the quickest.
~ John Updike
That is to say, epic poetry has been invented many times and independently; but, as the needs which prompted the invention have been broadly similar, so the invention itself has been.
~ Lascelles Abercrombie
A chief is a man who assumes responsibility. He says 'I was beaten', he does not say 'My men were beaten.'
~ Antoine De Saint-Exupéry
I have to say that anger is the blanket that comes around me, and that blunts and blurs my sense of proportion.
~ Pete Townshend
Anger is one way to respond to fear. I say one way because responses are categorically multiple.
~ Mark Z. Danielewski
I say, 'Use it or lose it.' I have my own fitness regime, which is centred around stretching, free-weights and fast walking. I also have a trainer half of the year, as I spend my summers in the south of France where I swim a lot.
~ Joan Collins
It is nonsense to say that Germans are unable to change.
~ Angela Merkel
I go home and stay there. I wash and scrub up each day, and that's it. One month I actually grew a moustache, just so I could say that I'd done something.
~ Bill Murray
If it's true that our species is alone in the universe, then I'd have to say the universe aimed rather low and settled for very little.
~ George Carlin
I have been given a list of 35 white farmers in Mashonaland West alone. We say no to whites owning our land, and they should go... They can own companies and apartments... but not the soil. It is ours, and that message should ring loud and clear in Britain and the United States.
~ Robert Mugabe
We were alone. Where, I could not say, hardly imagine. All was black, and such a dense black that, after some minutes, my eyes had not been able to discern even the faintest glimmer.
~ Jules Verne
All we can hope for is that the thing is going to slowly and imperceptibly shift. All I can say is that 50 years ago there were no such thing as environmental policies.
~ David Attenborough
Why are ecologists and environmentalists so feared and hated? This is because in part what they have to say is new to the general public, and the new is always alarming.
~ Garrett Hardin
I would say Gary Snyder, who is from my part of the world as a poet and environmental thinker, will be read just as Henry Thoreau as John Muir will continue to be read.
~ Robert Hass
What can you say about a society that says that God is dead and Elvis is alive?
~ Irv Kupcinet
People should have freedom in their pilgrimages and tours. They should come and visit historical monuments and sites - let's say the sites around Iran - where they can easily engage in wide- scale contacts with others.
~ Mahmoud Ahmadinejad
I think my dad is highly gender-neutral. If he doesn't like someone, he'll articulate that, and I think it's also part of what resonates about him. He'll say what he's thinking.
~ Ivanka Trump
I would say the dumbest thing I have heard is that my dad isn't my real dad.
~ Khloe Kardashian
I have to say that my dad's face is very malleable. He's barely got any cartilage in his face. I think I maybe inherited that Play-Doh-like physicality from him.
~ Claire Danes
To say that my dad pushed me is an understatement. I was never naturally drawn to football.
~ Thierry Henry
To pin your hopes upon the future is to consign those hopes to a hypothesis, which is to say, a nothingness. Here and now is what we must contend with.
~ Angela Carter
The people of the future will say, meat-eaters in disgust and regard us in the same way that we regard cannibals and cannibalism.
~ Dennis Weaver
