Yar Quotes

I passed out in our front yard. But honey, don’t turn out the light, cause I think I’m in the mood for love tonight Picture Quote #1

Money has, as we know, no value in itself. It is a convenient yardstick for a large number of material values. But the health and life of an individual as well as the health of a nation cannot be measured by that yardstick. If we, entrusted with protecting and defending the health of the population, give in to a salesman’s scale of values we are lost Picture Quote #1

Brother killing brother, father slaying son. From the looks of this old graveyard, hell nobody really won Picture Quote #1

My daddy served in the army where he lost his right eye, but he flew a flag out in our yard until the day that he died. He wanted my mother, my brother, my sister and me, to grow up and live happy in the land of the free Picture Quote #1

A good column is one that sells paper. It doesn’t matter how beautifully it is written and how much you admire the author... if it doesn’t sell any papers, it’s not a good column. It’s a terrible yardstick to use, but in the newspaper business, that’s the whole thing Picture Quote #1

Leave part of the yard rough. Don’t manicure everything. Small children in particular love to turn over rocks and find bugs, and give them some space to do that. Take your child fishing. Take your child on hikes Picture Quote #1

I have often been reminded of the wild duck that came down on migration into a barnyard and liked it so well that he stayed there. In the fall his erstwhile companions passed overhead and his first impulse was to rise and join them, but he had fed too well and could rise no higher than the eaves of the barn. The day came when his old fellow travelers could pass overhead without his even hearing their call. I have seen men and women who once mounted up with wings like eagles but are now content to live in the barnyard of this world Picture Quote #1

I’m a yarnaholic. That means I have more yarn stashed away than any one person could possibly use in three or four lifetimes. There’s something inspiring about yarn that makes me feel I could never have enough Picture Quote #1

I had many boxing matches with my brother in the backyard when we were younger, and I guess while other people abhor boxing for its brutality, I also have to admire anyone who climbs into the ring to face up to what could be the ultimate defeat Picture Quote #1

One metric catches people. We prefer businesses that drown in cash. An example of a different business is construction equipment. You work hard all year and there is your profit sitting in the yard. We avoid businesses like that. We prefer those that can write us a check at the end of the year Picture Quote #1

Amazing, really, to think of what a man could achieve with the simple ability to put pen to paper and spin a decent yarn Picture Quote #1

Yara: Youre a great warrior. I saw the bodies above your gates. Which one gave you the tougher fight, the cripple or the six year old? Picture Quote #1

One of the pleasures of being a gardener comes from the enjoyment you get looking at other people’s yards Picture Quote #1

Today I am sure no one needs to be told that the more birds a yard can support, the fewer insects there will be to trouble the gardener the following year Picture Quote #1

A cow peacefully grazing fifty yards away received one of the bullets in her back. She had nothing to do with the quarrel all the same Picture Quote #1

I work like a labourer on a farm or in a vineyard. Things come to me slowly. My vocabulary of forms, for instance, has not been the discovery of a day. It took shape in spite of myself... That is why I am always working on a hundred different things at the same time Picture Quote #1

I started out in a kid’s backyard playing touch football and I never abandoned the principle when I got to the pros: if they can’t touch you, they can’t tackle you Picture Quote #1

Going to a junkyard is a sobering experience. There you can see the ultimate destination of almost everything we desired Picture Quote #1

I went out in my yard and saw a snake, so I got really scared, and I came back inside to get a shovel, and beat the hell out of that snake. Then I didn’t have cable for a week Picture Quote #1

There are simply two kinds of music, good music and the other kind... the only yardstick by which the result should be judged is simply that of how it sounds. If it sounds good it’s successful; if it doesn’t it has failed Picture Quote #1

For the most part, I hang out in my back yard with my dog, but there’s no paparazzi trying to check that out Picture Quote #1

Contradictions if well understood and managed can spark off the fires of invention. Orthodoxy whether of the right or of the left is the graveyard of creativity Picture Quote #1

$Only the tiniest fracton of mankind want freedom. All the rest want someone to tell them theyare free Picture Quote #1$

Money in the hands of one or two men is like a dungheap in a barnyard. So long as it lies in a mass, it does no good; but, if it is only spread out evenly on the land, everything will grow Picture Quote #1

Knowledge of ideal beauty is not to be acquired. It is born with us. Innate ideas are in every man, born with him; theyare truly himself Picture Quote #1

Euler calculated the force of the wheels necessary to raise the water in a reservoir... My mill was carried out geometrically and could not raise a drop of water fifty yards from the reservoir. Vanity of vanities! Vanity of geometry! Picture Quote #1

Your great glory is not to be inferior to what you have been given by nature, and the greatest glory of a woman is to be least talked about by men, whether theyare praising or criticizing you Picture Quote #1

Personal dignity is to be measured with the yardstick of one’s conscience, not with that of other people’s judgement Picture Quote #1

My happiest childhood memories are of times in our backyard. My mother had an old clothesline that hung out in front. It seemed like it stretched a mile long, and I loved sitting in the sun while she hung clothes Picture Quote #1

In your arms I forget what the yarn knows of sweaters. I forget how to hold myself together. So if I unfold now like a love letter tell me you’ll write back soon. Tell me you’ll still come untethered Picture Quote #1
