“As a poodle may have his hair cut long or his hair cut short, as he may be trimmed with pink ribbons or with blue ribbons, yet he remains the same old poodle, so capitalism may be trimmed with factory laws, tenement laws, divorce laws and gambling laws, but it remains the same old capitalism. These "humanitarian parts" are only trimming the poodle. Socialism, one and inseparable with its "antirent and anticapital parts," means to get rid of the poodle.” MayMeanLongLawCuttingHairCapitalismBlueRemainsDivorceHumanitarianSocialismGamblingFactoriesInseparableRibbonsPoodlesTrimmingHair CutTenements Author:Daniel De Leon
“I've always hate child stars, starting from way back when, when I was a child. The first child star I saw was Shirley Temple. She was six years old, two foot six and the biggest star in Hollywood. She wore ribbons in her hair, and frilly little pinafores and shiny patent-leather tap shoes - just like the boys in Glee do.” WayYearsFirstsChildrenLittlesTwoHateStarsBoysSawsFeetHairSixHollywoodShoesStartingTemplesLeatherBack WhenPatentsRibbonsGleeSix Year OldsWay Back When Book:I Hate Everyone...Starting with Me Source: I Hate Everyone...Starting with Me

“Anyone who knew Violet well could tell she was thinking hard, because her long hair was tied up in a ribbon to keep it out of her eyes. Violet had a real knack for inventing and building strange devices, so her brain was often filled with images of pulleys, levers, and gears, and she never wanted to be distracted by something as trivial as her hair.” ThinkingWellsLongRealHardEyeWantedBrainBuildingStrangeHairFilledDevicesTiedHer EyesVioletDistractedGearsInventingRibbonsKnackLeversLong HairTied UpPulleysThinking Hard Author:Daniel Handler
“What an unreliable thing is time--when I want it to fly, the hours stick to me like glue. And what a changeable thing, too. Time is the twine to tie our lives into parcels of years and months. Or a rubber band stretched to suit our fancy. Time can be the pretty ribbon in a little girl's hair. Or the lines in your face, stealing your youthful colour and your hair. .... But in the end, time is a noose around the neck, strangling slowly.” WantYearsLittlesEndsFacesGirlHoursLinesOur LivesHairMonthsBandSticksStealingSuitsTiesFancyColourNecksYour FaceEnd TimesGlueRubberRibbonsUnreliableParcelNoosesStranglingRubber Bands Author:Rohinton Mistry

And in the sky above us, I see a miracle.” LooksHandsEyeThreeBehindsSkyHairStandingMiracleNecksUnlikelyRibbonsHolding HandsScarvesStellaKenny Author:Wendy Mass
