Results from Rand Lindsly's Quotations:

Dealing with network executives is like being nibbled to death by ducks.: Eric Sevareid
Working on television is like being shot out of a cannon. They cram you all up with rehearsals, then someone lights a fuse and - BANG - there you are in someone's living room.: Tallulah Bankhead (1903 - 1968)
The world makes up for all its follies and injustices by being damnably sentimental.: Thomas H. Huxley (1825 - 1895)
Observance of customs and laws can very easily be a cloak for a lie so subtle that our fellow human beings are unable to detect it. It may help us to escape all criticism, we may even be able to deceive ourselves in the belief of our obvious righteousness. But deep down, below the surface of the average man's conscience, he hears a voice whispering, "There is something not right," no matter how much his rightness is supported by public opinion or by the moral code.: Carl G. Jung, in the introduction to Frances G. Wickes' "Analysis der Kinderseele" (The Inner World of Childhood), 1931
Render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's; and unto God the things that are God's; and unto human beings, what?: Stanislaw J. Lec (1909 - 1966)
It is the wretchedness of being rich that you have to live with rich people.: Logan Pearsall Smith (1865 - 1946)
I passionately hate the idea of being with it. I think an artist has always to be out of step with his time.: Orson Welles (1915 - 1985), 1966
The continued propinquity of another human being cramps the style after a time unless that person is somebody you think you love. Then the burden becomes intolerable at once.: Quentin Crisp
We tolerate shapes in human beings that would horrify us if we saw them in a horse.: W. R. Inge
Women are being considered as candidates for Vice President of the United States because it is the worst job in America. It's amazing that men will take it. A job with real power is First Lady. I'd be willing to run for that. As far as the men who are running for President are concerned, they aren't even people I would date.: Nora Ephron, from her San Francisco lecture, November 4, 1983
