Quotes:

We as consumers will not tolerate a poor product or service, then why do we allow and in fact manage and lead a business that allows a less than tolerable product or service to exist?
View quotes by Jonathon J Salomon

The ancient Romans had a tradition: whenever one of their engineers constructed an arch, as the capstone was hoisted into place, the engineer assumed accountability for his work in the most profound way possible: he stood under the arch.
View quotes by Michael Armstrong

'The people who worked at the clubs just assumed I was a tag along girlfriend or groupie. I'd get up on stage and the audience was just like, 'Show me your tits!' I had nothing to show anyway!'
View quotes by Gwen Stefani

I don't know. People always think that there has got to be a dark side to everyone, a closet with skeletons, demons under the bed. People think all kinds of things about one another. They feel compelled to make up fears and false assumptions about their closest friends. Truth is, I'll never know all there is to know about you just as you will never know all there is to know about me. Humans are by nature too complicated to be understood fully. So, we can choose either to approach our fellow human beings with suspicion or to approach them with an open mind, a dash of optimism and a great deal of candour.
View quotes by Tom Hanks

'I want you to remember something for me. My name is Robbie Williams. I'm a singer, a songwriter, and a born entertainer.' (Live at Knebworth park summer 2003)
View quotes by Robbie Williams

I draw on my memories but blended with a lot of fantasy...but let's set the record straight on something! The Summer of '69 has nothing to do with the actual year 1969. It's about making love (69 - get it?) and looking back at the good old times.
View quotes by Bryan Adams

I'm single. It's summer. People need to know.
View quotes by Eve

People assume that for me to play a sexually open character like Samantha, I must have had fabulous sex for most of my life.
View quotes by Kim Cattrall

The course of true love never did run smooth - a Midsummer's nights dream
View quotes by William Shakespeare

Now is the winter of our discontent; Made glorious summer by this sun of York
View quotes by William Shakespeare

Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? Thou art more lovely and more temperate (Sonnet 18)
View quotes by William Shakespeare

But yet not cloy thy lips with loathed satiety, but rather famish them amid their plenty, making them red and pale with fresh variety, ten kisses short as one, one long as twenty! a summerīs day will seem an hour but short, being wasted in such time beguiling sport. (venusīnīadonis, poem)

'Hear it not, Duncan; for it is a knell That summons thee to heaven or hell.' [Macbeth, 2.1, Macbeth]
View quotes by William Shakespeare

It was a queer, sultry summer, the summer they electrocuted the Rosenbergs, and I didn't know what I was doing in New York.
View quotes by Sylvia Plath

Society is based on the assumption that everyone is alike and no one is alive.
View quotes by Hugh Kingsmill

"Dr Livingstone, I presume?"
View quotes by Henry Morton Stanley

- [Infinite Love] is a weapon of matchless potency. It is the 'summum bonum' of life. It is an attribute of the brave, in fact it is their all. It does not come within the each of the coward. It is no wooden of lifeless dogma but a living and life-giving force. It is the special attribute of the heart.
View quotes by Mahatma Gandhi

The United Nations was not set up to be a reformatory. It was assumed that you would be good before you got in and not that being in would make you good.
View quotes by John Foster Dulles

'With 2 movies opening this summer, I have no relaxing time at all. Whatever I have is spent in a drunken stupor.'
View quotes by Hugh Grant

'The media like drama so it's 'She's in Hell.' And I'm like no, I had a bad day in February and a bad day in September but a brilliant summer.'
View quotes by Bjork

Hi, we are Sum 41 and we're just something your parents will never understand
View quotes by Deryck Whibley

Let the scintillations of your wit be like the coruscations of summer lightning, lambent but innocuous.
View quotes by Edward Meyrick Goulburn

I am comforted by life's stability, by earth's unchangeableness. What has seemed new and frightening assumes its place in the unfolding of knowledge. It is good to know our universe. What is new is only new to us.
View quotes by Pearl Buck

The bourgeois prefers comfort to pleasure, convenience to liberty, and a pleasant temperature to the deathly inner consuming fire.
View quotes by Herman Hesse

It is now several months since I promised to give you my reasons for preferring the Bible as a schoolbook to all other compositions. Before I state my arguments, I shall assume the five following propositions:

1 . That Christianity is the only true and perfect religion; and that in proportion as mankind adopts its principles and obeys its precepts they will be wise and happy.

2. That a better knowledge of this religion is to be acquired by reading the Bible than in any other way.

3. That the Bible contains more knowledge necessary to man in his present state than any other book in the world.

4. That knowledge is most durable, and religious instruction most useful, when imparted in early life.

5. That the Bible, when not read in schools, is seldom read in any subsequent period of life.
- Benjamin Rush, Essays, pp. 93-113, 'A Defence of the Use of the Bible as a School Book'.

Nor one feeling of vengeance presume to defile The cause, or the men, of the Emerald Isle. (Erin)
View quotes by William Drenman

Skill comes so slow, and life so fast doth fly, We learn so little and forget so much. (Nosce Teipsum)
View quotes by Sir John Davies

In a consumer society there are inevitably two kinds of slaves: the prisoners of addiction and the prisoners of envy
View quotes by Ivan Illich

No more things should be presumed to exist than are absolutely necessary
View quotes by William Of Occam

Was there ever in anyone's life span a point free in time, devoid of memory, a night when choice was any more than the sum of all the choices gone before?
View quotes by Joan Didion
