My World Quotes (page 20)

My grandfather was a general in the Nationalist Chinese Air Force during World War II, and I grew up hearing the pilot stories and seeing pictures of him in uniform. Eric Liu
My entire life has really revolved around music that was written about the time that I was born, 1908, to just before the First World War and shortly after it. This music I've always known, and it is that music that's most important to me. Elliott Carter
My mother learned that she was carrying me at about the same time the Second World War was declared; with the family talent for magic realism, she once told me she had been to the doctor's on the very day. Angela Carter
My little girls are the most beautiful women in the world. I am a lucky, lucky man. I will spend every day making sure that they know this. Russell Simmons
Alicia Silverstone quote: "My favorite thing in the world is a box of fine European..."
My favorite thing in the world is a box of fine European chocolates which is, for sure, better than sex. Alicia Silverstone
My mom had started to go to work when I was nine or ten, so I was aware of women trying to find their own identities by working. But I was still influenced by men to such an extreme. I wanted to play their games and wanted to compete in their world and be like them. Elisabeth Shue
My heroes are those who risk their lives every day to protect our world and make it a better place - police, firefighters and members of our armed forces. Sidney Sheldon
Annie Leibovitz quote: "My hope is that we continue to nurture the places that we..."
My hope is that we continue to nurture the places that we love, but that we also look outside our immediate worlds. Annie Leibovitz
My friends, love is better than anger. Hope is better than fear. Optimism is better than despair. So let us be loving, hopeful and optimistic. And we'll change the world. Jack Layton
My management tells me, Don't be optimistic, because it's the young people's world now. They want to hear what they want to hear, and you're a classic rocker. I don't know if you're gonna get the play. Bob Seger
My public image is so low-key, but I get to travel the world and still have an audience and it's really amazing. I don't take that for granted. K. D. Lang
My belief, for what it is worth, is that city dwellers cannot understand the world. Insulated from reality by complex and expert systems of provision and police, baffled by fashion and spectacle, city dwellers can distinguish neither the sources of their existence nor the consequences. James Buchan
My relationship to power and authority is that I'm all for it. People need somebody to watch over them. Ninety-five percent of the people in the world need to be told what to do and how to behave. Arnold Schwarzenegger
My mother might find a thin gold chain at the back of a drawer, wadded into an impossibly tight knot, and give it to me to untangle. It would have a shiny, sweaty smell, and excite me: Gold chains linked you to the great fairy tales and myths, to Arabia, and India; to the great weight of the world, but lighter than a feather. Anne Lamott
World Play is very '70s arena rock, very raw and in your face, and that's what we wanted. We recorded it in a very off-the-cuff manner and didn't really plan out how we were going to play. My solos are first takes. Neal Schon
