Quotes:

Rulers do not reduce taxes to be kind. Expediency and greed create high taxation, and normally it takes an impending catastrophe to bring it down.
View quotes by Charles Adams

An adolescent is somebody who is in between things. A teenager is somebody who's kind of permanently there. And so living with them through the various teenage hopes and sorrows and joys was curiously enough a maturing experience for me.
View quotes by Andrew Greeley

'Reorganising the bedroom is a task that most people dread with the kind of loathing reserved for removing week-old plaster from a hairy forearm'
View quotes by Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen

It has caused indignation, it is most unfortunate, and any kind of racism - or racist slur - is unacceptable in any civilised society [on Jade Goody in Big Brother]
View quotes by Anand Sharma

I'd love to do a character with a wife, a nice little house, a couple of kids, a dog, maybe a bit of singing, and no guns and no killing, but nobody offers me those kind of parts.
View quotes by Christopher Walken

I believe the NME have deliberately tried to characterise me as a racist in a recent interview in order to boost their circulation. I abhor racism and cruelty of any kind and will not let this pass.
View quotes by Morrissey

Slasher movies are fun. You watch yourself get chopped to pieces, yet you're still alive. You see the blood on the ax and think, Holy shit, this is sick, but you kind of get over your fear of death.
View quotes by Tara Reid

I thank heaven I have often had it in my power to give help and relief, and this is still my greatest pleasure. If I could choose my sphere of action now, it would be that of the most simple and direct efforts of this kind.
View quotes by Reinhold Niebuhr

Roger [Federer], he brought tennis... one level higher. Normally he toys with everybody. With all respect to other players, he does whatever he wants on the court against them. It's incredible what kind of game he can play.
View quotes by Marat Safin

Somewhere in there the grace of a ballet dancer joins with the strength of an SAS squaddie, the dignity of an ancient kind, the nerve of a bomb disposal officer [on being a goalkeeper!]
View quotes by Eamonn Dunphy

Morality without religion is only a kind of dead reckoning - an endeavor to find our place on a cloudy sea by measuring the distance we have run, but without any observation of the heavenly bodies.
View quotes by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Overall his period in office can only be characterised as a decade of missed opportunities in which the hopes of the British people for a new kind of politics were shattered [on Tony Blair]
View quotes by Sir Menzies Campbell

Of course with John McCain out of the race, George W. Bush has to pick a running mate. Which is kind of a scary proposition when you think about it. I mean his dad picked Dan Quayle, an he isn't as smart as his dad.
View quotes by Jay Leno

Some kind hearts have lived in every generation, but it is only within a few years that the older Christians have come into such perfect love and sympathy with children's needs as to set apart a Sunday for their especial benefit
View quotes by Susan Teall Perry

I'm half-Cuban - my mother was born in Cuba and came here as a teenager - so it's got a lot of Latin influence to it. It's pretty poppish. It's kind of more on the J-Lo side of things. [on her musical sound]
View quotes by Jamie-Lynn Sigler

That's awesome. That's so sweet. I know the feeling because I loved Monica Seles, so whenever I got a chance to play her, I was just still really excited. It's just kind of strange to be in the opposite position [on Krajicek idolising her]
View quotes by Serena Williams

If you really want to hear about it, the first thing you'll probably want to know is where I was born, and what my lousy childhood was like, and how my parents were occupied and all before they had me, and all that David Copperfield kind of crap, but I don't feel like going into it, if you want to know the truth. (Opening line, The Catcher in the Rye)
View quotes by J D Salinger

'You know, a dream like this seems kind of vaguely ludicrous and completely unattainable. But this moment is directly connected to those childhood imaginings. And for anybody who's on the down side of advantage and relying purely on courage, it's possible.'
View quotes by Russell Crowe

Like other parties of the kind, it was first silent, then talky, then argumentative, then disputatious, then unintelligible, then altogether, then inarticulate, and then drunk. When we had reached the last step of this glorious ladder, it was difficult to get down again without stumbling.
View quotes by Lord Byron

Camp is a vision of the world in terms of style - but a particular kind of style. It is love of the exaggerated.
View quotes by Susan Sontag
