Text Quotes
The Viennese wash everything. Where else in the world does the government hire public servants to wash public telephone booths and the glass over traffic lights? Every time I see someone doing these things, I smile like a child  (Raf Quotes) Painting is welcome. The painting is almost the natural man; for since dishonor traffics with man's nature he is but outside; these pencilled figures are even such as they give out  (Raf Quotes) The great defense against the air menace is to attack the enemy's aircraft as near as possible to their point of departure  (Raf Quotes) I wanted very much to do Traffic and at one point it looked like I was going to work on it. And then, of course, Catherine Zeta-Jones had her relationship with Michael Douglas and it suddenly didn't happen  (Raf Quotes) Everything a writer learns about the art or craft of fiction takes just a little away from his need or desire to write at all. In the end he knows all the tricks and has nothing to say  (Raf Quotes) The greatest pleasure when I started making money was not buying cars or yachts but finding myself able to have as many freshly typed drafts as possible  (Raf Quotes) Every year, August lashes out in volcanic fury, rising with the din of morning traffic, its great metallic wings smashing against the ground, heating the air with ever - increasing intensity  (Raf Quotes) Faulkner is a writer who has had much to do with my soul, but Hemingway is the one who had the most to do with my craft - not simply for his books, but for his astounding knowledge of the aspect of craftsmanship in the science of writing  (Raf Quotes) Literature that keeps employing new linguistic and formal modes of expression to draft a panorama of society as a whole while at the same time exposing it, tearing the masks from it's face - for me that would be deserving of an award  (Raf Quotes) Women have crucified the Mary Wollstonecrafts, the Fanny Wrights, and the George Sands of all ages. Men mock us with the fact and say we are ever cruel to each other... If this present woman must be crucified, let men drive the spikes  (Raf Quotes) Since then, I have just read and read - but, that said, I suppose there is a raft of writers to whom I return again and again, not so much because I want to write like them, even if I were capable of it, but simply for a sort of stylistic shot in the arm  (Raf Quotes) The average bright young man who is drafted hates the whole business because an army always tries to eliminate the individual differences in men  (Raf Quotes) You may hear people say that submarines have done away with the battleship, and that aircraft have annulled the mastery of the sea. That is what our pessimists say. But do you imagine that the clumsy submarine or the fragile aeroplane is really the last word of science?  (Raf Quotes) At the time it seriously troubled me, but in drafting me as Marshall Plan Administrator, president Truman did as great a favor for me as one man can do for another. It opened my eyes to many things of which I was totally unaware and it was the beginning of my real education  (Raf Quotes) Jews have God's promise and if we Christians have it, too, then it is only as those chosen with them, as guests in their house, that we are new wood grafted onto their tree  (Raf Quotes) Feminism encourages women to leave their husbands, kill their children, practice witchcraft, destroy capitalism and become lesbians  (Raf Quotes) The writer crafts their ideal world. In my world, everyone has really long conversations or just picks apart pop culture to death and everyone talks in monologue  (Raf Quotes) You know, my first three or four drafts, you can see, are on legal pads in long hand. And then I go to a typewriter, and I know everybody's switching to a computer. And I'm sort of laughed at  (Raf Quotes) A sip of wine, a cigarette, And then it's time to go. I tidied up the kitchenette; I tuned the old banjo. I'm wanted at the traffic-jam. They're saving me a seat  (Raf Quotes) It is something - it can be everything - to have found a fellow bird with whom you can sit among the rafters while the drinking and boasting and reciting and fighting go on below  (Raf Quotes) George Raft may or may not have gone both ways, but he was very sensitive to what they said about him, and it was one factor why he decided to play all those gangsters in the movies  (Raf Quotes) In the original draft I was 27 and Peter was 55 in the script. That's not the same as a guy in his 40s and a dad in the end of his 70s. It's a different point in both our lives  (Raf Quotes) Nobody was ever so cunning as to conceal their being so; and everybody is shy and distrustful of crafty men  (Raf Quotes) The old writer, like the old actor, is a master of his craft. Youthfulness of style is no more than a matter of technique  (Raf Quotes) To this day, I'm against the draft. I believe the military is much stronger if it's an all volunteer organization  (Raf Quotes) Without a shadow of doubt, Trafalgar Square has to be one of the most crap urban public spaces in the world  (Raf Quotes) I have the ordinary experience of being anonymous when I'm in an airplane talking to air-traffic control, and they don't know who they're talking to. I have a lot of common experiences  (Raf Quotes) I spent six years at United and I owe them everything that I am today. I made history at United and won many trophies. It was a pleasure to play at Old Trafford  (Raf Quotes) I'm very crafty! One time I made a television set out of a cardboard box - everybody thought it was a lark!
