If the German people lay down their weapons, the Soviets, according to the agreement between Roosevelt, Churchill and Stalin, would occupy all of East and Southeast Europe along with the greater part of the Reich. An iron curtain would fall over this enor...
Joseph Goebbels
A soldier of the Legion lay dying in Algiers, There was a lack of woman`s nursing, there was dearth of woman`s tears; But a comrade stood beside him, while his lifeblood ebbed away
Caroline Norton
Nature will bear the closest inspection. She invites us to lay our eye level with her smallest leaf, and take an insect view of its plain.
Henry David Thoreau
A truly good book teaches me better than to read it. I must soon lay it down, and commence living on its hint. What I began by reading, I must finish by acting.
Henry David Thoreau
The Bible tells me that no greater love has a man than to lay down his life for his friends. John Kerry`s fellow crewmates -- the men I am honored to share the stage with -- are living testimony to his leadership, his courage under fire, and his willingne...
Max Cleland
I cannot undertake to lay my finger on that article of the Constitution which granted a right to Congress of expending, on objects of benevolence, the money of their constituents.
James Madison
A bunch of girls, swinging from a nice chandelier, landing on top of me naked...while I lay in a pool of steaming hot water! --On his spring break fantasy
Eminem
I`m only too proud to say that I`ve never had ANY discipline problems with Laura [Laura Dern, his daughter]. In fact, I never needed to lay a hand on her, because Diane [Diane Ladd, his former wife and Laura`s mother] was so much better at keeping her in ...
Bruce Dern
[on making "Rose Red" (2002) (mini)] I wasn`t allowed to do anything quirky, or to have an interesting accent. So the challenge lay in making her as interesting as I could without making her unusual. And that was hard!
Melanie Lynskey
I`d like to grab an opportunity to finally lay to rest a much quoted untruth about my political leanings. I have never been a Conservative, or at least not since being a young teenager. My father voted Conservative, and even his doing that was a hangover ...
Phil Collins
I would like to break out of this "dark, brooding" image, cause I`m actually not like that at all. In Ireland, brooding is a term we use for hens. A brooding hen is supposed to lay eggs. Everytime somebody says "He`s dark and brooding" I think: "He`s abou...

[on Errol Flynn] He was one of the wild characters of the world, but he had a strange, quiet side. He camouflaged himself completely. In all the years I knew him, I never really knew what lay underneath and I doubt if many people did.
Ann Sheridan
On how he came up with the lyrics for his album Trap Muzik, "This is a paperless album. I don`t write nothing down. Just listen to the beat for a minute like this right here.. and get in the booth and lay it down."
T.i Harris
(on turning down appearing in Playboy in the nude): "It`s not that I`m against nudity. I`m German, I`m very open, in Germany they lay in the park naked. It`s just the principle."
Claudia Schiffer
You know, I`d say that aside from Mr. Ford`s [John Ford] help in my career, I`d lay any success I`ve had to not expecting too much. I never expected to become a star and was always content to stay two or three rungs down the ladder and last awhile. When I...
Ben Johnson
I was just a poor student. I had no interest in it. When I make a film the tacit contract with the audience is that I will give them some entertainment and not bore them. I have to do that. I just lay a message on them. Great filmmakers, like Ingmar Bergm...
Woody Allen
Being on a successful show is kind of like being a sea turtle. Every year sea turtles lay hundreds and hundreds of eggs but only a few manage to survive and mature. It`s the same with TV pilots. There are so many great ideas, but for whatever reason only ...

Actors are boring when they are not working. It`s a natural condition, because they don`t have anything to do. They just lay around, and that`s why so many of them get drunk. They really get to be boring people. My wife will attest to that.
James Coburn
You may not need the big, hulking guy anymore, especially if he isn`t a great skater, ... If you can`t lay a stick on the guy, they may not be as effective.
Jeff Perry
My imperfections and failures are as much a blessing from God as my successes and my talents and I lay them both at his feet.
Mahatma Gandhi
