Score Quotes (page 7)

The bells, I say, the bells break down their tower; And swing I know not where. Their tongues engrave. Membrane through marrow, my long-scattered score. Of broken intervals? And I, their sexton slave! Hart Crane
we disgust works of art by our meaninglessness, our diffuseness in time which lets us drift through three score years and ten without a quarter as much significance as a picture establishes instantaneously Rebecca West
Bill Copeland quote: "The trouble with not having a goal is that you can spend your..."
The trouble with not having a goal is that you can spend your life running up and down the field and never score. Bill Copeland
It has been my face. It's got older still, or course, but less, comparatively, than it would otherwise have done. It's scored with deep, dry wrinkles, the skin is cracked. But my face hasn't collapsed, as some with fine feature have done. It's kept the same contours, but its substance has been laid waste. I have a face laid waste. Marguerite Duras
She's wacko. I should have known she was wacko from the beginning. She had a thing about spies. Was always watching those stupid Bond movies. I'd be banging her from behind, and she'd be watching James Bond on the television. Can you believe it?"~(Written during Pierce Brosnan's 007 days so, yeah, I CAN believe it!) "Four To Score Janet Evanovich
It might be noted here that Freudian analysts of fairy tales have suggested that kissing toads and frogs is symbolized fellatio. In that regard, Princess Leigh-Cheri was, on a conscious level, innocent, although not so nave as Queen Tilli, who though fellatio was an obscure Italian opera and was annoyed that she couldn’t find the score. Tom Robbins
Why then did she do it? She looked at the canvas, lightly scored with running lines. It would be hung in the servants' bedrooms. It would be rolled up and stuffed under a sofa. What was the good of doing it then, and she heard some voice saying she couldn't paint, saying she couldn't create, as if she were caught up in one of those habitual currents in which after a certain time experience forms in the mind, so that one repeats words without being aware any longer who originally spoke them. Virginia Woolf
The mind of Caesar. It is the reverse of most men's. It rejoices in committing itself. To us arrive each day a score of challenges; we must say yes or no to decisions that will set off chains of consequences. Some of us deliberate; some of us refuse the decision, which is itself a decision; some of us leap giddily into the decision, setting our jaws and closing our eyes, which is the sort of decision of despair. Caesar embraces decision. It is as though he felt his mind to be operating only... Thornton Wilder
I ate them like salad, books were my sandwich for lunch, my tiffin and dinner and midnight munch. I tore out the pages, ate them with salt, doused them with relish, gnawed on the bindings, turned the chapters with my tongue! Books by the dozen, the score and the billion. I carried so many home I was hunchbacked for years. Philosophy, art history, politics, social science, the poem, the essay, the grandiose play, you name 'em, I ate 'em. Ray Bradbury
The strong are strengthened by reverses; the trouble is that the true meaning of events scores next to nothing in the match we play with men. Appearances decide our gains or losses and the points are trumpery. And a mere semblance of defeat may hopelessly checkmate us. Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Frederick The Great quote: "Diplomacy without arms is like a concert without a score"
Diplomacy without arms is like a concert without a score Frederick The Great
Oh the places you'll go! There is fun to be done! There are points to be scored. There are games to be won. And the magical things you can do with that ball will make you the winning-est winner of all. Dr. Seuss
Are you prepared to have quiteobvious things explained to you, to ask futile questions, to give mechances of scoring off you, to make brilliant discoveries of your owntwo or three days after I have made them myself all that kind of thing? A. A. Milne
We are not obliged to sound the Bishop of ? on the score of orthodoxy. In the presence of such a soul we feel ourselves in no mood but respect. The conscience of the just man should be accepted on his word. Moreover, certain natures being given, we admit the possible development of all beauties of human virtue in a belief that differs from our own. Victor Hugo
Red Auerbach quote: "If you're keeping score, win."
If you're keeping score, win. Red Auerbach
