It is my object, in the following work, to travel over ground which has as yet been little explored and to make my reader acquainted with a species of Remains, which, though absolutely necessary for understanding the history of the globe, have been hitherto almost uniformly neglected. ~Georges Cuvier
#quotes #georges-cuvier
I really hate airport queues. I almost feel they should have cattle prods to hurry us up down the aisles. You can't even complain because they might stop you getting on to the flight. ~Len Goodman
#quotes #len-goodman #airports
Words, words, words! They shut one off from the universe. Three quarters of the time one is never in contact with things, only with the beastly words that stand for them. ~Aldous Huxley

This arena is a special place. Everybody loves it. To be able to stand behind the bench and be a part of a great tournament for the '96 Elite is fun. The kids, having a chance to play in the building where the Penguins play, it's a special feeling for them. ~Mario Lemieux

I'm terrified of learning lines, and I've always been terrified that I won't learn them. ~Helen Mirren
#quotes #helen-mirren
We are all human beings, immigrant or non-immigrant. We all feel fear. We all love and become confused when we don't act as well as we would like to. We all get depressed and have feelings of uselessness. All of these things are true and have always been true. ~Akhil Sharma

Let's be very clear, if you check the F.E.C. records you will see I am supporting George W. Bush. ~Roger Stone

What bothers most critics of my work is the goofiness. One reviewer said I need to make up my mind if want to be funny or serious. My response is that I will make up my mind when God does, because life is a commingling of the sacred and the profane, good and evil. To try and separate them is fallacy. ~Tom Robbins
#quotes #tom-robbins #critic #writing
Most modern Indians don't stick to their caste jobs any more. There is more inter-caste marriage, more fluidity, more freedom than ever before. But the outcastes are usually still outcastes, because they are still the ones who tan India's animals, burn its dead, and remove its excrement. ~Rose George

Ethanol is a premier, high performance fuel. It has tremendous environmental benefits and is a key component to energy independence for our country. ~Richard Lugar

There is a concept that is the corrupter and destroyer of all others. I speak not of Evil, whose limited empire is that of ethics; I speak of the infinite. ~Jorge Luis Borges

God does not change; and neither does His love. He loved you before you were born. He loves you now; and He will love you forever. ~Billy Graham

By keeping most tax rates at present levels, Obama and the Democrats will claim that they have championed tax cuts for the middle class. ~John Podhoretz

For my own style, I love vintage. 60's and 70's are my favorite. I love baby doll dresses and the soft colors. I try to mix a little bit of modern into that; maybe I'll wear it with boots. At my school we wear a uniform, but we have one day a week we can wear whatever we want. ~Elle Fanning
