Corner Quotes

I talked late, swam late, did not learn to ride a bike until college - and might never have walked or learned to drive a car if my parents hadn’t overruled my lack of motivation and virtually forced me to embrace both forms of transportation. I suspect I was happy to sit in a corner with a book Picture Quote #1

Soft. Her hand was so soft, like cat fur, like bird feathers, like...everything soft he could think of. Her thumb caressing the corner of his mouth and her lips when they first touched his were tentative Picture Quote #1

A black man - I say a black man, we got no corner on the market, but every day in some form or fashion you got to prove you’re a man. But you want to keep the life-and-death situations down. I can get beat. But there’s getting beat and there’s getting stomped Picture Quote #1

America’s most dangerous and threatening black man is the one who has been kept sealed up by the Northerner in the black ghettos - the Northern white power structure’s system to keep talking democracy while keeping the black man out of sight somewhere, around the corner Picture Quote #1

When black women are down with you and in your corner, you have an ally that will move Heaven and Earth Picture Quote #1

Don’t blame me for the fact that competent programming, as I view it as an intellectual possibility, will be too difficult for the average programmer, you must not fall into the trap of rejecting a surgical technique because it is beyond the capabilities of the barber in his shop around the corner Picture Quote #1

I really don’t see any men sitting in the corner office plotting to keep women out. All the men I know are actively trying to promote women, to get more women involved. These men have wives they care about; they have daughters they desperately care about. So I don’t think it’s fair to blame men - or I don’t think it’s accurate to blame men anymore Picture Quote #1

Your desires and true beliefs have a way of playing blind man’s bluff. You must corner the inner facts Picture Quote #1

Well with girls I don’t get no respect. I had a blind date. I waited two hours on the corner. A girl walked by. I said Are you Louise? She said, Are you Rodney? I said, Yeah. She said, I’m not Louise Picture Quote #1

I grew up in the middle of a block where there was an Irish grocery store on one corner, an Italian bar on another corner and the Nazi Party was on the third corner Picture Quote #1

I want to make a picture that could stand on its own, regardless of what it was a picture of. I’ve never been a bit interested in the fact that this was a picture of a blues musician or a street corner or something Picture Quote #1

One thing I noticed working in the Bronx is that leaders come in the craziest places. They don’t always show up at community board meetings. Sometimes it’s just the guys on the corner that the boys on the block respect Picture Quote #1

If I was president, of course I’d want an amendment banning boy bands, but it just wouldn’t be right, and I wouldn’t do it. Then again... I don’t want to paint myself into a corner on this one. Let me think about it Picture Quote #1

For years I have been mourning and not for my dead, it is for this boy for whatever corner in my heart died when his childhood slid out of my arms Picture Quote #1

Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will make me go in a corner and cry by myself for hours Picture Quote #1

I thought we’d turned a corner. Maybe we did, but we hit a brick wall anyway Picture Quote #1

We need to bring sustainable energy to every corner of the globe with technologies like solar energy mini-grids, solar powered lights, and wind turbines Picture Quote #1

The British Army has a fine tradition of being so distracted by what it is currently up to it stubbornly refuses to look round the corner, let alone into the future Picture Quote #1

I’ve had broken bones and cuts and dashes and tears from movies, but when I was five, my mom put the biscuits up high so we wouldn’t be helping ourselves. So, one day I asked to stand up on a chair to get a biscuit, and it fell, and the corner of the chair went right into the side of my eye, and it made a big hole in there Picture Quote #1

Brother, you can’t go to jail for what you’re thinking, or that look in your eye, just standing on the corner watching all the girls go by Picture Quote #1

I hate bumper stickers, you can’t sum anything up. All you do is paint yourself in some caricaturist corner Picture Quote #1

We don’t have titles on our business cards. No one really gets any special treatment. No one gets a corner office to put pictures of their family and their dog in Picture Quote #1

I began my show business career playing violin in San Francisco at the corner of Market and Taylor. I understand that there is a theater there now Picture Quote #1

Since most startups operate at a break-neck pace, with a concept to prove or a product to launch within a rapidly shortening runway of financing, company culture often gets shoved aside. This is a big, big mistake: Nobody serious about their business should put culture in the corner Picture Quote #1

If I could throw my phone away, I would probably do it. It’s always on silent, and I don’t like when it rings and people are calling. We could live without those things in the past when we just had a phone on the street somewhere, on the corner or at the house. I have no interest in telling all the people what I do every day and where I am Picture Quote #1

In terms of foods for me, I think I have more of the usual associations - foods from childhood that I associate with care and love, from relatives or special restaurants like the kind elderly man who dusted seasoning salt on French fries at the corner burger joint Picture Quote #1

Our checks are pale. Our wallets are invalids. Past due, past due, is what our bills are saying and yet we kiss in every corner, scuffing the dust and the cat. Love rises like bread as we go bust Picture Quote #1

I’m afraid if I don’t keep moving, they’re going to catch me ... I am 81 years old and I want to see what’s around the corner, and I don’t see any reason in the world not to keep working. But I am starting to value my down time a great deal because I am realizing there might be other things to do that I am overlooking Picture Quote #1

No matter how well things are going, failure and disaster are just around the corner. So celebrate the good, but be ready for the bad Picture Quote #1

For all our conceits about being the center of the universe, we live in a routine planet of a humdrum star stuck away in an obscure corner ... on an unexceptional galaxy which is one of about 100 billion galaxies. ... That is the fundamental fact of the universe we inhabit, and it is very good for us to understand that Picture Quote #1
