Yis Quotes

True dandyism is the result of an artistic temperament working upon a fine body within the wide limits of fashion Picture Quote #1

Im boyish with a feminine twist. I definitely gravitate toward oversized things like shirts and jackets. I like a good trouser, but then I might mix it up with something more feminine, like a pointy boot or pumps Picture Quote #1

How do I stay so healthy and boyishly handsome? It’s simple. I drink the blood of young runaways Picture Quote #1

In effect I am not a novelist, but rather a failed essayist who started to write novels because he didn’t know how to write essays Picture Quote #1

War is a survival among us from savage times and affects now chiefly the boyish and unthinking element of the nation Picture Quote #1

Get involved in an issue that you’re passionate about. It almost doesn’t matter what it is... We give too much of our power away, to the professional politicians, to the lobbyists, to cynicism. And our democracy suffers as a result Picture Quote #1

My skin is kind of sort of brownish pinkish yellowish white. My eyes are greyish blueish green, but I’m told they look orange in the night. My hair is reddish blondish brown, but its silver when its wet, and all the colors I am inside have not been invented yet Picture Quote #1

These beings have no other status, but that of cultivating the idea of beauty in their own persons, of satisfying their passions, of feeling and thinking... Contrary to what many thoughtless people seem to believe, dandyism is not even an excessive delight in clothes and material elegance. For the perfect dandy, these things are no more than the symbol of the aristocratic superiority of his mind Picture Quote #1

The American people are screaming out saying it’s unfair that the wealthiest, the largest corporations who can afford the best attorneys, the best accountants, take advantage of these special tax treatments that the lobbyists have, along with lawmakers, have cooked in the books here Picture Quote #1

He has a childlike, boyish, impish, mischievousness. And I have to try and make him behave properly, like a holy man! Picture Quote #1

Was his very boyishness the reason he was chosen? In that case, was it not a virtue to be admired, and not a failing to be despised? Picture Quote #1

God bless all the precious little examples and all their cascading implications; without these gems, these tiny acorns bearing the blueprints of oak trees, essayists would be out of business Picture Quote #1

Were art to redeem man, it could do so only by saving him from the seriousness of life and restoring him to an unexpected boyishness Picture Quote #1

Nothing primes inspiration more than necessity, whether it be the presence of a copyist waiting for your work or the prodding of an impresario tearing his hair Picture Quote #1

True politeness is consideration for the opinions of others. It has been said of dogmatism that it is only puppyism come to its full growth; and certainly the worst form this quality can assume is that of opinionativeness and arrogance Picture Quote #1

Her hair had been going gray as long as he could remember; she bundled it behind in a bun held with hairpins that he frequently found on the floor when he lived boyishly close to the carpet Picture Quote #1

My hair is not really white; it's kind of grayish, and I don't like the color. So I make it totally white with Klorane dry shampoo. That is the best thing to do because my hair is always clean Picture Quote #1

Recently, lobbyists for the pharmaceutical industry wrote a prescription drug bill that increased their profits and did nothing to help seniors. The result: seniors are stuck with a confusing prescription drug plan that does little to help them with their costs Picture Quote #1

The essayist has to follow a certain intellectual pattern. The novelist has the advantage of using fantasy, of being subjective Picture Quote #1

We work for the families back home, we do not work for the lobbyists that prowl the halls of the capital building, do not forget who we work for Picture Quote #1

If a lobbyist sets up shop, or a lawyer, in which they’re receiving income through what is something like a tax loophole so that it’s not counting as corporate income, that is what this is counting as a small business Picture Quote #1

We show wisdom by a decent conformity to social etiquette; it is excess of neatness or display that creates dandyism in men, and coquetry in women Picture Quote #1

You can play older than yourself. You can play younger than yourself up to a point, and then that just becomes impossible because you carry a weight with you that you can’t shift, unless you have very boyish looks Picture Quote #1

I don’t think any novelist should be concerned with literature…literature should be left to essayists Picture Quote #1

The best programs are written so that computing machines can perform them quickly and so that human beings can understand them clearly. A programmer is ideally an essayist who works with traditional aesthetic and literary forms as well as mathematical concepts, to communicate the way that an algorithm works and to convince a reader that the results will be correct Picture Quote #1

Our current tax code is one that was designed by and for the benefit of politicians and lobbyists. It punishes achievement and rewards laziness. It punishes the voting blocks unimportant to politicians, and rewards voting blocks who keep them in office Picture Quote #1

... I used words without precautions. I wanted to disappear into them, I fled into the bovaryism of the writer trying to create an effect Picture Quote #1

I used to feel more straight for certain months and then just think about boys all the time I’m attracted to women who are very, very boyish. I’m not very big on big mammaries. I have a tendency to be attracted to very, very boyish girls. And usually very feminine men Picture Quote #1

... catching a glimpse of his rather hippyish form in a mirror, he wonders at this atavism of apparel, is it an inversion of foetal ontogeny, in which the phenotype passes through previous fashion stages? Soon there will be gaiters and gloves... I will probably die, he thinks, clad in animal skins Picture Quote #1
