A hundred years from now it will not matter what my bank account was, the sort of house I lived in, or the kind of car I drove...but the world may be different because I was important in the life of a child.

…the analogy between the noises we make when these noises do not symbolize anything which exists, and the worthless checks we write when our bank balance is zero…
Alfred Korzybski
When you live with another person for 50 years, all of your memories are invested in that person, like a bank account of shared memories. It’s not that you refer to them constantly. In fact, for people who do not live in the past, you almost never say, ...
Federico Fellini
A lot of actors didn`t make their start until in their prime - I remember Buster Merryfield - who played Uncle Albert in "Only Fools and Horses" (1981) - saying that it wasn`t until he retired as a bank clerk that he got involved with amateur dramatics, a...

Bill Murray
I feel very undeserving. I feel the award is a bank loan, which I`ll take out and pay back by the end of 20 years, and by then I`ll feel more deserving. - On receiving his Lifetime Achievement award from the Directors Guild of Great Britain.
Sam Mendes
I was lucky to learn early in life that you need money for food and shelter, but there`s no ambition in having money in the bank for the sake of it!
Helen McCrory
That`s our advantage. Teams come here and can`t take their eyes off of all the breasts. -- referring to the bikinis worn by lady fans in the Diamondbacks`s home, Bank One Ballpark.

There was no way to stop what was going to happen. We just reached the point where all that the three of us really wanted to do was hold up a bank. And besides, standing there with a gun, cleaning out a teller`s cage - that`s about as fuckin` honest as yo...
