Time was with most of us, when Christmas Day, encircling all our limited world like a magic ring, left nothing out for us to miss or seek; bound together all our home enjoyments, affections, and hopes; grouped everything and everyone round the Christ
Charles Dickens
I`m scared every time I go into the ring, but it`s how you handle it. What you have to do is plant your feet, bite down on your mouthpiece and say, `Let`s go.`
Mike Tyson
[after a female fan effectively proposed marriage to him at a Star Trek convention] "I don`t know, I don`t have a ring. My wife does, however. Let`s go talk to her."
Robert McNeill
Well it doesn`t exactly have a ring to it, does it? It`s more the sort of name you`d give to your goldfish for a joke. [about his first name]
Colin Firth
I think he is capable of being the next Rey Mysterio but it all depends on if he wants to be. I`m on the road Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. When I go home on Wednesday I feel like I`m stepping right back into the ring. (on his son, Dominik)
Rey Mysterio
[on turning down the role of Gandalf in The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001)] Yeah, well, I never understood it. I read the book. I read the script. I saw the movie. I still don`t understand it.
Sean Connery
My mother says I didn`t open my eyes for eight days after I was born, but when I did, the first thing I saw was an engagement ring. I was hooked.
Elizabeth Taylor
[on picking up his new hobby] Boxing is fascinating. It`s good for the soul to be made to feel clumsy. I swank around during the week thinking I`m a big cheese, but you don`t feel like that when you`re in the ring with a chap who knows what he`s doing. It...
Hugh Laurie
I always ask myself why old heavyweights come back, but I plan to stay out of the ring. I`ve got a new life now, a new future, there`s a lot more to Lennox Lewis than just being a boxer. I am very sure about my decision.
Lennox Lewis
At my utopian film academy I would have students do athletic things with real physical contact, like boxing, something that would teach them to be unafraid. I would have a loft with a lot of space where in one corner there would be a boxing ring. Students...

A wonderful thing about acting is that there`s continually the possibility of that huge brass ring out there, like a degenerate gambler making a hit. You work hard and maybe that slick, glitteringring is sticking to your palm.

I try to remember, as I hear about friends getting engaged, that it`s not about the ring and it`s not about the wedding. It`s a grave thing, getting married. And it`s easy to get swept up in the wrong things.
Gwyneth Paltrow
I was incredibly shy when I first got into the business, I still am to some extent. I`ve overcome that shyness through contact sports, but I wanted to find that same confidence interacting with people through acting instead of in the ring.
Dolph Lundgren
There`s so much more I want to do. I refuse to get to 50 and wait at home for the phone to ring. In Spain, actresses work until they are old. That`s my plan.
Penelope Cruz
I don`t think I`m a better wrestler than Ric Flair. No way in hell. There`s no one in the business who can match the excitement, entertainment, and passion he brought in the ring. Rob Van Dam is very close though.
Paul Levesque
[2/12/04] I remember, before we started principal photography on The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001), Peter Jackson screened Braveheart (1995) and The Thin Red Line (1998) for the cast. He said, "This is the tone I want to strike with...

On fighting (and winning) against all of his critics in a boxing ring: "You see what happens when people get hit in the head? They like my movies!"
Uwe Boll
He`s a fallen hero, a very gentle man under that exterior. He`s lived in an environment always ravaged by war and had to be realistic. He wants to use the ring against the enemy instead of destroying it. He doesn`t understand the complexities this piece o...
Sean Bean
(To Randy Orton) "If I had a nickel for every stiff like you that walked into this ring, challenged me and lost, I would be a millionaire...Oh, wait a minute, I am a millionaire and it`s because of stiffs like you!"
Shawn Michaels
Frank [Sinatra] took me to a whole new planet. I worked with him until he passed away in `98. He left me his ring. I never take it off. Now, when I go to Sicily, I don`t need a passport. I just flash my ring.
Quincy Jones
