Editors may think of themselves as dignified headwaiters in a well-run restaurant but more often they operate a snack bar and expect you to be grateful that at least they got the food to the table warm.
Thomas Griffith
There is a principle which is a bar against all information, which is proof against all arguments and which cannot fail to keep a man in everlasting ignorance - that principle is contempt prior to investigation
Herbert Spencer
I like vending machines, because snacks are better when they fall. If I buy a candy bar at the store, oftentimes I will drop it so that is achieves its maximum flavor potential.
Mitch Hedberg
I don`t believe in Bond as a hero. It`s a load of nonsense. How can you be a spy when any bar you walk into, the bartender says, `Ah, Mr Bond. Shaken, not stirred?` - His explanation for his comical approach to the Bond character.
Roger Moore
What happened to me - the biggest nervous breakdown in history, bar possibly Vivien Leigh`s - is not so uncommon. I`ve had thousands of supportive letters from all over the world. It`s just that mine was public. If you`re gonna fall apart, do it in your o...
Margot Kidder
[on why he loves "The Daily Show" (1996)]: It saves me from sitting at home in my underwear screaming at the television set. If I didn`t do this show I`d be the crazy guy at the bar sitting at the corner screaming "He doesn`t know shit about what he`s tal...
Jon Stewart
My only challenge is to entertain. And I accomplish my task better when I myself am entertained by what I am doing. I am very critical of myself, I constantly set the bar higher and higher. I try to surpass myself. That`s all. But I also know how to prese...
Val Kilmer
There`s something to be said for failing. It`s not the failure you feel, it`s the failure that people project when something disappoints. You`re back to ground zero, where there`s no expectations, and that`s where I like to be. People like to set the bar ...
Kevin Smith
The bar . . . is an exercise in solitude. Above all else, it must be quiet, dark, very comfortable - and, contrary to modern mores, no music of any kind, no matter how faint. In sum, there should be no more than a dozen tables, and a client that doesn`t l...
Luis Bunuel
This cute woman walked into my favourite bar in Gavella, Croatia, about 5 years ago. When I saw her I said Uh-oh, that`s it". But I was shy, so I didn`t ask her out until a couple of days later, when I finally found someone who knew her phone number."
Goran Visnjic
It doesn`t really exist, this Frat Pack. We run into each other on occasions and we all like each other`s films, I guess, but there isn`t some big funny restaurant or bar where we all hang out. At least, if there is, they haven`t invited me. I wasn`t in Y...
Will Ferrell
It was a rough time for me. I was living that New York nightlife. Fame had arrived, it was a fresh thing and everybody was my best friend. It didn`t matter if I had a 6 A.M. call, as long as the bar was serving until 4 A.M. I was there. I had to learn to ...
Charlie Sheen
I was still making movies so it wasn`t as if I were working in a bar, but they were independent films that couldn`t find distributors.
Linda Fiorentino
[on being confused with his character from The Godfather (1972)] I`ll bump into a guy in a bar, and he`ll say, "I`m sorry, Sonny!" It`s surreal.
James Caan
When I took acting classes and being drunk was the assigned impediment of the day, a lot of people would go out the night before and get drunk. That`s not research! Research is going to bar... and drinking coffee.
Sam Rockwell
I don`t really like to go out to clubs or anything. It`s just not my style. I`d much rather go to a dive bar or a local place. I just don`t love feeling awful, having to tell people, "Hi, yeah, I was in Scary Movie (2000). Do you mind if we come in?" I me...
Anna Faris
I don`t think I`ve drunk one since I`ve left the Bond movies. Every bar you go in, there`s always some wisecrack, `Oh, yours will be a Martini, shaken, not stirred!` You get sick and tired of that. - talking about all of the vodka martinis he would get wh...
Timothy Dalton
[1987 comment on Trevor Howard] I believe Trevor Howard has quite a nice, gentle riposte to unwanted attention. Someone saw him in a bar once and said, "Are you Trevor Howard?". "Yes," he replied, "when I`m working I am."
Charles Dance
Knowing me, I`d probably end up at a bar, asking some guy to get me another martini. Still bleaching my hair at 59. (her response to what she thinks she`ll be like when she`s old.)
Courtney Love
A fella came up to me the other day with a nice story. He was in a bar somewhere and it was the quiet time of the night. Everybody`s staring down at the sauce and one of my saloon songs comes on the jukebox, "One for My Baby", or something like that. Afte...
Frank Sinatra
Suddenly, I`m 14 years old at a friend`s bar mitzvah, and I`m doing a limbo dance in a really short skirt. Afterwards, this guy comes up to me and says, `Well, aren`t you cute,` and he gives me his card. Turns out he was in the film business, and six mont...
Kelli Garner
I like to party, sure. But my kind of good time is not going to a nightclub or a bar that`s just a meat market. I don`t go to those kinds of places. I prefer to have a big camp fire at home and have all my friends round and share a big bottle of wine.
Jamie Luner
I also believe that you are what you have to defend, and if you`re a black man that`s always going to be the bar against which you are judged, whether you want to align yourself with those themes or not. You can think of yourself as a colourless person, b...
Don Cheadle
Commenting on the Simpsons bar Moe`s Tavern and taverns in general: "I was always frightened by taverns. They just seemed like very unpleasant places to go. And there is nothing nice about Moe`s Tavern. It`s just a creepy, dark place. And there are never ...
Matt Groening
I was in London during my first sci-fi convention for Buffy the Vampire Slayer" (1997) and I was at the local bar, having a drink, writing in my journal, and this woman came up to me and said, "Do you want a drink?" I said, "No, thank you." She pushed it ...

Editors may think of themselves as dignified headwaiters in a well-run restaurant but more often they operate a snack bar and expect you to be grateful that at least they got the food to the table warm.
