There are a lot of idiots in this country, and they deserve representation as much as the next man Picture Quote #1

There's a lot to be said for being alone. But you and I know, don't we, Flavia, that being alone and being lonely are not at all the same thing? Picture Quote #1

Anslinger's reefer madness did not caution even the seeds of efficient, intelligent, ruthless action...

Fools! Not to know how far an humble lot exceeds abundance by injustice got; how health and temperance bless the rustic swain, while luxury destroys her pamper'd train Picture Quote #1

I complain a lot. That's one way of coping. But I'm in a profession where nobody tells you to quit. No board of other partners tells you it's time to get your gold watch, and no physical claim is made on you like an athlete or an actress. So I try to plug along on the theory that I can still do it. I still keep trying to produce prose, and some poetry, in the hope that I can find something to say about being alive, this country, but generally the human condition Picture Quote #1

Four years was enough of Harvard. I still had a lot to learn, but had been given the liberating notion that now I could teach myself Picture Quote #1

A lot of people hate heroes. I was criticized for portraying people who are brave, honest, loving, intelligent. That was called weak and sentimental. People who dismiss all real emotion as sentimentality are cowards. They're afraid to commit themselves, and so they remain ‘cool' for the rest of their lives, until they're dead-then they're really cool Picture Quote #1

I grew up in the 1930's Great Depression when many families struggled to make ends meet, and in an area where old-fashioned country gospel music was popular. Later, as an adult with a more mature outlook on Christianity, I realized that a lot of that music was rather shallow Picture Quote #1

A lot of people have gone further than they thought they could because someone else thought they could Picture Quote #1

It is unwise to pay too little. When you pay too much, you lose a little money, that is all. When you pay too little, you sometimes lose everything because the thing you bought was incapable of doing what it was bought to do. The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot Picture Quote #1

None of us can be expected to perform every minute of our lives. But a lot of us might tap into the power, excitement, and glory of real life more frequently if we cast ourselves as the leading ladies in our own lives Picture Quote #1

Sure, he was lonely. Sure, they had a lot in common. Sure, he was attracted to her, and it was clear she felt the same about him Picture Quote #1

It is not my intention to denounce modern education. If it is bad, it may be said that all education is bad which is not self-education, and quite a lot of self-education is going on today - some of it in our schools, under the very noses of the teachers! Picture Quote #1

A lot of people are afraid to say what they want. That's why they don't get what they want Picture Quote #1

Students today are a pretty solemn lot. One of the really notable achievements of the twentieth century has been to make the young old before their time Picture Quote #1

Hollywood is about playing the game, and I can't think of any successful actresses who didn't play the game. There's a lot more renegades in the music business, from Patti Smith to Janis Joplin Picture Quote #1

I think that my interpretation of Italian was a lot more southern than what my husband cooks. You know, I grew up in Queens and in Brooklyn, and we - really, it's more southern. It's Naples and Sicily. It's heavier. It's over-spiced. and like most Americans, I thought spaghetti and meatballs was genius Picture Quote #1

A lot of what passes for depression these days is nothing more than a body saying that it needs work Picture Quote #1

My father was very strong. I don't agree with a lot of the ways he brought me up. I don't agree with a lot of his values, but he did have a lot of integrity, and if he told us not to do something, he didn't do it either Picture Quote #1

I go to Malawi twice a year. It's where two of my children were adopted from, and I have a lot of projects there that I go and check up on and children who I look after. It's sort of a commitment that I've made to this country and the hundreds of thousands of children there who have been orphaned by AIDS Picture Quote #1
