A woman has two smiles that an angel might envy, the smile that accepts a lover before words are uttered, and the smile that lights on the first born babe, and assures it of a mother`s love.
Thomas C. Haliburton
The suspicious believe everybody to be suspicious; the liar feels secure in the thought that he is not so foolish as to believe that there is such a phenomenon as a strictly truthful person; the envious see envy in every soul; the miser thinks everybody i...
James Allen
Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.
Winston Churchill
Envy consists in seeing things never in themselves, but only in their relations. If you desire glory, you may envy Napoleon, but Napoleon envied Caesar, Caesar envied Alexander, and Alexander, I daresay, envied Hercules, who never existed.
Bertrand Russell

Bertrand Russell
I was seen as an outsider in the beginning and then an object of great envy. All the national directors wanted to be international. They would come up to me and say, If I cast Michael Caine and Sean Connery, do you think this will make it?" There was this...
Mira Nair
There`s a big difference between the National Book Awards and the Academy Awards. At the Academy Awards you can feel the greed and envy and ego. Whereas the National Book Awards are in New York.
Steve Martin
People treat me with a bit too much reverence. Look at Dustin Hoffman. I always envy the way he can speak and be smart and funny and so on. I just can`t do that.
Robert De Niro
I`ve lived a number of lives. I`m inclined to envy the man who leads one life, with one job, and one wife, in one country, under one God. It may not be a very exciting existence, but at least by the time he`s seventy-three he knows how old he is.
John Huston
I`d observed that lust, greed, envy, sloth and their pals are giving the world a good run for its money; but that nonetheless people in general seem to get from day to day; and that we in the United States get from day to day in rather wonderful and privi...
David Mamet
It stirs up envy, fame does. People you run into feel that, well, who does she think she is, Marilyn Monroe? They feel fame gives them some kind of privilege to walk up to you and say anything to you, you know, of any kind of nature - and it won`t hurt yo...
Marilyn Monroe
I made a lot of mistakes when I was successful in the `70s. You know, there`s no handbook for success so I couldn`t make out what vibe I was picking up. But it`s called jealousy, envy and loathing, though they come at you with smiles because they want som...
Peter Bogdanovich
Sometimes I envy their power and money, and other times I feel sorry for them since they have a gun to their head. They have so much to protect that they have to be very careful, thus very certain every step of the way, and that leaves out a lot of work o...
Willem Dafoe
I don`t believe in God now. I can still work up an envy for someone who has a faith. I can see how that could be a deeply soothing experience. (1992)
Jack Nicholson
When I went to Philadelphia I was 26 years old and really sitting on top of the world. Family life, a professional career, plenty of friends and associates, and a good reputation, a wish list that could be the envy of many.
