Famous Quotes & Sayings

Charles Dickens

Every baby born into the world is a finer one than the last.

Alan Watts

A living body is not a fixed thing but a flowing event, like a flame or a whirlpool: the shape alone is stable, for the substance is a stream of energy going in at one end and out at the other. We are particularly and temporarily identifiable wiggles in a stream that enters us in the form of light, heat, air, water, milk, bread, fruit, beer, beef Stroganoff, caviar, and pate de foie gras. It goes out as gas and excrement - and also as semen, babies, talk, politics, commerce, war, poetry, and music. And philosophy.

Alan Watts

The difference between a baby and adult is that a baby believes in everything while the adult doubts everything. Babies also only tell the truth until they learn what a lie is.

Al Pacino

Akhil Sharma

The little babies are missing their families from their past lives. The babies have old souls and the old souls have to shrink to become little babies. The tears loosen their memories so they can slide away. They cry at the life they have lost, and then they cry at everything they'll forget.

Chris Bohjalian

My wife and I would be very comfortable having a baby at home or using one of the terrific nurse-midwives at the hospital.

Charles Dickens

There was a frosty rime upon the trees, which, in the faint light of the clouded moon, hung upon the smaller branches like dead garlands.

Alan Watts

So we down-to-earth, gutsy, tough, realistic, and practical types have just been squandering billions of dollars and unimaginable amounts of energy, nerve-work, and materials in whizzing off to the moon to discover, as astronomers knew before, that it was just a dreary slag heap. This is the true, original and scientifically etymological meaning of being lunatics. Crying for the moon.

Alan Watts

If to enjoy even an enjoyable present we must have the assurance of a happy future, we are “crying for the moon.” We have no such assurance. The best predictions are still matters of probability rather than certainty, and to the best of our knowledge every one of us is going to suffer and die. If, then, we cannot live happily without an assured future, we are certainly not adapted to living in a finite world where, despite the best plans, accidents will happen, and where death comes at the end.

Alan Hovhaness

To me, atonality is against nature. There is a center to everything that exists. The planets have the sun, the earth, the moon.

But I'm the only one who can paint the moon, because I'm the only one who knows whether that's right or not.

Alan Bean

Alan Bean

Alan Bean

It's hard not to be excited when you're going to find a way to land on the moon.

Alan Bean

We knew it was going to be difficult to get to the moon. We didn't know how difficult.

Bill Joy

Alan Sugar

I have principles and I am not going to be forced to compromise them.

Alan Sugar

Once you decide to work for yourself, you never go back to work for somebody else.

Charles Lamb

To pile up honey upon sugar, and sugar upon honey, to an interminable tedious sweetness.

Diana Wynne Jones

Beauty isn't made of sugar.

Derrick Rose

Everybody's got their poison, and mine is sugar.

John Berry

too young to have worked with mules, but old enough to have worked in a sugar mill.

Barbara Kingsolver

Sugar, it's no parade but you'll get down the street one way or another, so you'd just as well throw your shoulders back and pick up the pace.
