“It's fairly obvious, since Richard Nixon, that there is no such thing as a fair deal for any voter in the United States -- You're just not gonna get it. It's a joke -- the people that you vote for, they're the next best thing to criminals. But of course they have money for advertising campaigns that make them look a little bit better than they actually are.” PeopleLooksLittlesStatesCoursesNextBitsUnitedDealsUnited StatesLittle BitJokesFairsVoteObviousCriminalsCampaignsAdvertisingBest ThingsVoters Author:Frank Zappa
“Conversations about films are always funny. I would say a majority of people want to talk about what were the more obvious successes; the big box office films. Other people wanting to be more sensitive to you want to talk about the ones that maybe didn't make a lot of money, but they think you might have a special feeling about. And then other people sometimes want to help you by suggesting that you should have done this or that in the movie, that that would have helped you a great deal in whatever capacity.” PeopleThinkingWantShouldSometimesDoneHelpingFeelingsBigsMightFilmDealsSpecialConversationOfficeCapacityShould HaveMajorityObviousBoxesSensitiveLots Of MoneySuggestingBox Office Author:Walter Hill
“The comparison between Coleridge and Johnson is obvious in so far as each held sway chiefly by the power of his tongue. The difference between their methods is so marked that it is tempting, but also unnecessary, to judge one to be inferior to the other. Johnson was robust, combative, and concrete; Coleridge was the opposite. The contrast was perhaps in his mind when he said of Johnson: "his bow-wow manner must have had a good deal to do with the effect produced.” MindSaidDifferencesDealsEffectsJudgingOppositesMethodObviousTongueComparisonWowContrastConcreteBowsInferiorsUnnecessaryJohnsonRobustTemptingBow Wow Book:Delphi Complete Works of Virginia Woolf (Illustrated) Source: Delphi Complete Works of Virginia Woolf (Illustrated)
“It's not about the big deal you struck that day, it's not about the new car, it's not about the obvious stuff. It's about that little introspective moment you had in the middle of all that. Those are moments between the moments, and that's where life is.” LittlesMomentsBigsLife IsStuffDealsMiddleCarObviousBig DealIntrospectiveNew Car Author:Charlie Sheen
“One of the top challenges is the fact that you are dealing with survivors. Every time you deal with a documentary film subject it is fraught with obvious minefields but when you are dealing with a population that is severely traumatized and trying to recover from that trauma there is an extra level of vigilance and care and attention that has to be implemented all the time at every level.” TryingFactsCareFilmChallengesLevelsDealsAttentionSubjectsPopulationObviousTraumaExtrasSurvivorDocumentariesVigilanceMinefieldsDocumentary Films Author:Amy Ziering
“It turns out the population issue is an easier thing to deal with than the consumption issue. Some obvious extremes in consumption we can deal with. The standard cure for a stuttering economy is to go out and buy an SUV and three more refrigerators. That's obviously not the way to go.” WayTurnsThreeDealsEconomyIssuesEasierStandardsPopulationObviousExtremesCuresConsumptionRefrigeratorsStutteringSuvs Author:Paul R. Ehrlich
