Picked Quotes (page 40)

I rolled over and picked up Us Weekly magazine off the floor. The cover had a picture of Angelina, Brad, and their little Eskimo son, Maddox. I saw staring at the photo, wondering why this little boy looks so pissed off in every picture. At first I thought he was just pissed about his Mohawk, but then I realized he’s probably furious. Maddox must have thought he hit the jackpot when some A-list celebrity rescued him from third-world Cambodia, only to discover that she was going to shuffle... Chelsea Handler
There is a misconception, geocentric and anthropomorphic, common to the large majority the the earthbound, which causes them to visualize a planetary system stereoscopically. The mind's eye sees a sun, remote from a backdrop of stars, and surrounded by spinning apples -- the planets. Step out on your balcony and look. Can you tell the planets from the stars? Venus you may pick out with ease, but could you tell it from Canopus, if you had not previously been introduced? That little red... Robert A. Heinlein

My worry about the New York Times is that it's got the only position as a national elitist general-interest paper. So the network news picks up its cues from the Times. And local papers do too. It has a huge influence. And we'd love to challenge it. Rupert Murdoch
Iris Murdoch quote: "Perhaps when distant people on other planets pick up some..."
Perhaps when distant people on other planets pick up some wavelength of ours all they hear is a continuous scream. Iris Murdoch
Team sports aren't my thing. I find it easier to pick something up if I can do it at my own speed. And you don't need a partner to go running, you don't need a particular place, like in tennis, just a pair of trainers. Haruki Murakami
Bill Mumy quote: "I have about 50 guitars around the house. I can't take more..."
I have about 50 guitars around the house. I can't take more than a few steps without finding one to pick up. Bill Mumy
Kary Mullis quote: "My mother would give my brothers and me a pile of catalogues..."
My mother would give my brothers and me a pile of catalogues and let us pick what we wanted for Christmas. Kary Mullis
John Muir quote: "When we try to pick out anything by itself, we find it hitched..."
When we try to pick out anything by itself, we find it hitched to everything else in the universe. John Muir
Now a great debate has been born. The thesis is Democratic Socialism. The antithesis is free-market capitalism. The Obama Democrats have posed the challenge. It is now up to the Republicans to pick it up and fight along these lines. Dick Morris
