Licensed Quotes (page 3)

I think the iPod is the true face of Republican politics, and I’m in favor of the music industry … standing up proud and saying it out loud: We in the Chiclet-manufacturing business are not about social justice, …we’re not about a coherent set of national ideals, we’re not about wisdom. We’re about choosing what WE want to listen to and ignoring everything else…. We’re about giving ourselves a mindless feel-good treat every five minutes. …We’re about persuading ten-year-old children to spend... Jonathan Franzen
Laurel: I don't need a ring or a license, or a spetacular white dress. It's not marriage so much, or at all really, that matters. It's the promise. It's the knowing someone wants me to be part of his life. Someone loves me, that I'm the one for him. That's not just enough, it's everything. Nora Roberts
I had just dropped out of medicine in my first year of residency, a few months shy of becoming a licensed M.D. I'd discovered there was something serious, mainly a matter of nerve and perhaps empathy, that stood in my way. Barbara Kingsolver
Rick Warren quote: "Frankness is not a license to say anything you want, wherever..."
Frankness is not a license to say anything you want, wherever and whenever you want. It is not rudeness. Rick Warren
These girls with old gents don't do it despite the age—they're drawn to the age, they do it for the age. Why? In Consuela's case, because the vast difference in age gives her permission to submit, I think. My age and my status give her, rationally, the license to surrender, and surrendering in bed is a not unpleasant sensation. But simultaneously, to give yourself over intimately to a much, much older man provides this sort of younger woman with authority of a kind she cannot get in a sexual... Philip Roth
A drug is not bad. A drug is a chemical compound. The problem comes in when people who take drugs treat them like a license to behave like an asshole. Frank Zappa
Just get up. What's your name, kid?" "G-man"I don't mean your codename down at the Dickhead Club. What does it say on your driver's license? Tad Williams
Too young, too young, she chanted to herself. Wrong, of course. I was older than her grandfather but according to my driver's license, she was right. Stephenie Meyer
Freedom is not an unlimited license, an unlimited choice, or an unlimited opportunity. Freedom is first of all a responsibility before the God from whom we come. Alan Keyes
I was going to suggest some hard-won guidelines for responsible reviewing. For instance: First, as in Hippocrates, do no harm. Second, never stoop to score a point or bite an ankle. Third, always understand that in this symbiosis, you are the parasite. Fourth, look with an open heart and mind at every different kind of book with every change of emotional weather because we are reading for our lives and that could be love gone out the window or a horseman on the roof. Fifth, use theory only as... John Leonard
Being a geek is all about being honest about what you enjoy and not being afraid to demonstrate that affection. It means never having to play it cool about how much you like something. It’s basically a license to proudly emote on a somewhat childish level rather than behave like a supposed adult. Being a geek is extremely liberating. Simon Pegg
Stephen King quote: "I was being paid to do what I loved, and there's no gig on..."
I was being paid to do what I loved, and there's no gig on earth better than that; it's like a license to steal. Stephen King
To many people, free will is a license to rebel not against what is unjust or hard in life but against what is best for them and true. Dean Koontz
Dennis Miller quote: "Here in Hollywood you can actually get a marriage license..."
Here in Hollywood you can actually get a marriage license printed on an Etch-A-Sketch. Dennis Miller
Marshall McLuhan quote: "American youth attributes much more importance to arriving at..."
American youth attributes much more importance to arriving at driver's license age than at voting age. Marshall McLuhan
