Quotes:

It gives one a sudden start in going down a barren, stony street, to see upon a narrow strip of grass, just within the iron fence, the radiant dandelion, shining in the grass, like a spark dropped from the sun.
View quotes by Henry Ward Beecher

Being Open Source gave us market share, name recognition, and street creds: intangible perhaps, but very valuable. Frankly, I think that closing up the sendmail source code would have been suicide.
View quotes by Eric Allman

About ten years ago I appeared on Wogan as myself. The next day a man came up to me in the street and said, 'You're Harry Enfield, aren't you? I love your characters! Stavros cracks me up and as for Loadsamoney - he's the biz! But I saw you on Wogan last night - you're a right prat in real life, aren't you?'
View quotes by Harry Enfield

His game embraced a contempt for his fate, a fomaing fury, because to him cricket was a game of kill or be killed, a street fighter in which it was left to the umpires to keep peace [on Viv Richards]
View quotes by Peter Roebuck

Every third woman you passed on Gold Street in Baranof was young, pretty, and pregnant. The men, too, were young, virile, and pregnant with purpose
View quotes by Edna Ferber

I like hiding somewhere, like, say on a bus street in a doorway, and taking pictures without people knowing - which sounds really creepy....You get some of the most interesting pictures because people are walking past not realising you're there.
View quotes by Anna Paquin

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]

When asked to add the name of her first pet to the name of the street she grew up on, to get her porn star name 'Taffy Huntington - but my real porn star name was something else. You'll have to do the research!'
View quotes by Megan Mullally

I've been lucky to have some great opportunities acting with some great people since leaving Corrie, I have certainly been kept busy since leaving the street!
View quotes by Suranne Jones

Young people are more sophisticated today, thanks to magazines and movies and even porno cable television. As a New Yorker I think I've matured faster than other young people. I'm street smart
View quotes by Phoebe Cates

'Sometimes I'll be walking down the street and I'll hear some American and I'll just go, 'Of course they hate us, of course they can't stand us. We're the most annoying, boisterous creatures in the world.' I mean we come in and we eat mounds of food, and we're like, 'Where's the ketchup for our French fries.' I'm like, 'Shut up.'' - explaining how she REALLY feels about her American fans when being treated poorly in France.

A friend was approached on the street by a Hare Krishna believer in the whole regalia-saffron robe, finger cymbals. But before the Hare could begin his lecture, my friend said, I'm lost, but I'm loving it! The proselytzer was so taken aback that he simply walked away.

I do think he's right for the job.

I spent the day [Sunday] in Downing Street at a meeting that John Prescott chaired looking at what we were doing in response to this earthquake in Yogyakarta.

He then came over the road to thank the different emergency teams that have been working since the early hours of Saturday morning. [explaining the point of John Prescott]
View quotes by Hilary Benn

Liberals should not overplay this weapons of mass destruction card, because you want me to tell you the truth? Most of us are not going to care if they don't find these weapons of mass destruction. It's enough for a lot of us to see those kids smiling on that street again.
View quotes by Dennis Miller

A mathematical theory is not to be considered complete until you have made it so clear that you can explain it to the first man whom you meet on the street. [hmm so that means no mathematical theory is complete then!]
View quotes by David Hilbert

Imagine you live in a town of twenty, or fifty, or one hundred thousand souls - in Indiana, perhaps, or Illinois, or Missouri, or Tennessee - with a colonnaded red-brick city hall at its center, a Main Street running its breadth, avenues rimmed with modest bungalows and named for trees and exotic heroes and local luminaries, interrupted at intervals by high-steepled churches
