“I hate the term 'arm candy.' But, look, a woman's figure is a beautiful thing, and if she has shapely legs, then she should show them off, because men love to see that. Not just heterosexual men - gay men like to see a woman in her beauty and the shape of her.” IfsMenShouldLooksShowsBeautifulHateTermFiguresArmsGayShapesI HateLegsBeautiful ThingsCandyGay MenHer Beauty Author:Bruce Forsyth
“I've never recognized 'emo' as a genre of music. I always thought it was the most retarded term ever. I know there is this generic commonplace that every band that gets labeled with that term hates it. They feel scandalized by it. But honestly, I just thought that all the bands I played in were punk rock bands. The reason I think it's so stupid is that - what, like the Bad Brains weren't emotional? What - they were robots or something? It just doesn't make any sense to me.” ThinkingKnowsFeelsReasonHateTermBrainRocksStupidEmotionalBandHonestlyGenrePunkRobotsCommonplacePunk RockRock BandsRetardedGenericEmoGenres Of Music Author:Guy Picciotto
“In the long term, we've got to defeat an ideology of hate with an ideology of hope.

“We have a choice about how we take what happens to us in our life and whether or not we allow it to turn us.

“We are very hip on the fact that America's always No. 1. On this we are not, in terms of the number of women in our legislative branches and obviously as head of state. We need to push on that. I hate to say this: It isn't all men's fault. I think some of it is our own attitude and approach.

“I don't think of design as a job. I think of it as - and I hate to use this term for it - more of a calling.

“There is nothing so necessary, but at the same time there is nothing more difficult (I know it by experience) for you young fellows, than to know how to behave yourselves prudently towards those whom you do not like. Your passions are warm, and your heads are light; you hate all those who oppose your views, either of ambition or love; and a rival, in either, is almost a synonymous term for any enemy.” KnowsLightYoungHatePassionDifficultTermViewsEnemyKnow HowLike YouBehaviorAmbitionFellowsWarmBehaveRivalsRivalry Author:Lord Chesterfield
