Quotes:

Where does this guy's ambition go? That's very peculiar. I think he's a very disturbing person, I think he's a very disturbing politician. Personally, I feel his interest is a self-interest [on George Galloway]
View quotes by Helen Mirren

The mugger who is arrested is back on the street before the police officer, but the person mugged may not be back on the street for a long time, if ever.
View quotes by Mario Cuomo

Remove advertising, disable a person or firm from proclaiming its wares and their merits, and the whole of society and of the economy is transformed. The enemies of advertising are the enemies of freedom.
View quotes by David Ogilvy

As a member of Congress, I believe it is the responsibility of those elected to represent the people at every level of government to ensure that our government works to ensure that every person who wants gainful employment has it.
View quotes by Leonard Boswell

Power is not of a man. Wealth does not center in the person of the wealthy. Celebrity is not inherent in any personality. To be celebrated, to be wealthy, to have power requires access to major institutions.
View quotes by C Wright Mills

All our hopes are pinned on one person - Paula Radcliffe. If Paula doesn't win gold then we are going to have a postmortem on this Olympic team. [she didn't win gold, but Britain came top 10 overall in 2004 Athens Olympics]
View quotes by Roger Black

He turns into a madman. His plan hasn't worked, and like a lot of people in that situation he blames everyone but himself. Deep down he knows that he's as much to blame as anyone for what has happened but Sally is the closest person to him and it is in his nature to blame her. He's a very selfish man. [About his character Greg Kelly in Coronation Street]
View quotes by Stephen Billington

You can know a person by the kind of desk he keeps. If the president of a company has a clean desk then it must be the executive vice president who is doing all the work.
View quotes by Harold Geneen

You can turn your back on a person, but never turn your back on a drug, especially when its waving a razor sharp hunting knife in your eye.
View quotes by Hunter S Thompson

What is necessary to change a person is to change his awareness of himself.
View quotes by Abraham Maslow

A person who won't read has no advantage over one who can't read.
View quotes by Mark Twain

Treat a person as he is, and he will remain as he is. Treat him as he could be, and he will become what he should be.
View quotes by Jimmy Johnson

Voyagers discover that the world can never be larger than the person that is in the world; but it is impossible to foresee this, it is impossible to be warned.
View quotes by James Baldwin

We call that person who has lost his father, an orphan; and a widower that man who has lost his wife. But that man who has known the immense unhappiness of losing a friend, by what name do we call him? Here every language is silent and holds its peace in impotence.
View quotes by Joseph Roux

I kind of see myself as a cartoon that's on its way to becoming a real person that has to find that special amulet or mushroom to get to that next realm or level. I don't feel like anything is that tangible. It freaks me out, why I feel unhappy or conflicted and why that can change on a dime. I feel very manic right now, but I'm confident where I am.
View quotes by Carly Pope

I have only got down on to paper, really, three types of people: the person I think I am, the people who irritate me, and the people I'd like to be.
View quotes by E M Forster

Don't marry the person you think you can live with; marry only the individual you think you can't live without. [Advice to those preparing for marriage]
View quotes by James C Dobson

I've hear the diva rumours, they crack me up. I'm such a plain Jane. And my roots are so instilled in me that it's not that weird to go home. I think it depends on the kind of person you are; whether you're easily drawn to the superficial things, but that's not who I am. People driven by the money and fame, I've seen how it makes them and that life means nothing to me. [Elle UK March 2004]
View quotes by Christina Aguilera

Whatever it is that makes a person charming, it needs to remain a mystery once the charmer is aware of a mannerism or characteristic that others find charming, it ceases to be a mannerism and becomes an affectation. And good Lord, there is nothing less charming than affectations!
View quotes by Rex Harrison

A society person who is enthusiastic about modern painting or Truman Capote is already half a traitor to his class. It is middle-class people who, quite mistakenly, imagine that a lively pursuit of the latest in reading and painting will advance their status in the world.
View quotes by Mary McCarthy
