Quotes about thin
thinking helping nonsense

thinking feet comedian
I love doing it [hosting the Oscars] because I love the danger of it and you have to come through and think on your feet. That's why that show, no matter who hosts it, it really should be a fast-thinking comedian who is really quick on their feet that can handle situations that happen, or somebody with that kind of mentality that can capitalize on something. Billy Crystal
thinking comedy jazz

If it does, I can feel a sense of momentum - the poem finds a reason for continuing. Billy Collins
thinking underrated

thinking path poet

thinking self laughing

thinking two different

thinking people way
I find it strange that - at least in my take on it - the people who are the most alarmed about the dire times we live in are the ones who seem to be humorless, in their taste for poetry anyway. Humor is just an ingredient. It's always been in poetry. It kind of dropped out of poetry I think during the 19th and up to the mid-twentieth century. But it's found its way back. And it's simply an ingredient. Billy Collins
thinking trying way
I try to presume that no one is interested in me. And I think experience bears that out. No one's interested in the experiences of a stranger - let's put it that way. And then you have difficulty combined with presumptuousness, which is the most dire trouble with poetry. Billy Collins
thinking pleasure form
I think the pleasure of form is that you have a companion with you besides all the poetry you have ever read. Billy Collins
thinking should-have perfect
I think a good poem should have some inscrutable part. You can't quite explain it. The poem can only explain itself to a certain limit and at that point you enter into a little bit of mystery. That for me is the perfect poem: to begin in clarity and to end in mystery. Billy Collins
thinking goes-on composition
There's a lot of unconscious activity that goes on I think in the composition of a poem. Billy Collins
thinking years people
There's nothing like it, but it's not as good as you think it's going to be. . . . I was disappointed because there are records of people finding things that have been there for years. I was hoping for a shirt button, or my club's badge - but not a sausage. Billy Connolly
thinking people water
Well, the film's not only pricking the pomposity of the Church, it's pricking the pomposity, and sometimes you would think fraudulence, of the insurance companies. I had never read anything like this until I was doing the film, but Mark [Joffe, the director] and people showed me stuff where, like a flood, it mattered where the water came from. If you're flooded from above, you get the money; if you're flooded from below, you don't. What's that about? Billy Connolly
