I believe that in a great city, or even in a small city or a village, a great theater is the outward and visible sign of an inward and probable culture.
Laurence Olivier, Sir
Whenever a theory appears to you as the only possible one, take this as a sign that you have neither understood the theory nor the problem which it was intended to solve
Karl Popper
So let us begin anew - remembering on both sides that civility is not a sign of weakness, and sincerity is always subject to proof
John Fitzgerald Kennedy
If you define cowardice as running away at the first sign of danger, screaming and tripping and begging for mercy, then yes, Mr. Brave man, I guess I`m a coward.
Jack Handy
A sense of humor... is needed armor. Joy in one`s heart and some laughter on one`s lips is a sign that the person down deep has a pretty good grasp of life.
Hugh Sidey
When two people decide to get a divorce, it isn`t a sign that they "don`t understand" one another, but a sign that they have, at last, begun to.
Helen Rowland

Gardens, scholars say, are the first sign of commitment to a community. When people plant corn they are saying, let`s stay here. And by their connection to the land, they are connected to one another.
Anne Raver
In the rough, a symbol is a sign that stands for something… Before a noise, etc., may become a symbol, something must exist for the symbol to symbolize.
Alfred Korzybski
I`d marry again if I found a man who had fifteen million dollars, would sign over half to me, and guarantee that he`d be dead within a year.
Bette Davis
The `morality of compromise` sounds contradictory. Compromise is usually a sign of weakness, or an admission of defeat. Strong men don`t compromise, it is said, and principles should never be compromised.
Andrew Carnegie
I used to have a sign over my computer that read OLD DOGS CAN LEARN NEW TRICKS, but lately I sometimes ask myself how many more new tricks I want to learn. Wouldn’t it be easier just to be outdated?
Ram Dass
I argue very well. Ask any of my remaining friends. I can win an argument on any topic, against any opponent. People know this, and steer clear of me at parties. Often, as a sign of their great respect, they don`t even invite me.
Dave Barry
In Washington, the first thing people tell you is what their job is. In Los Angeles you learn their star sign. In Houston you`re told how rich they are. And in New York they tell you what their rent is.
Simon Hoggart
The fan is the one who suffers. He cheers a guy to a .350 season then watches that player sign with another team. When you destroy fan loyalties, you destroy everything.
Frank Robinson
The first time you buy a house you think how pretty it is and sign the check. The second time you look to see if the basement has termites. It`s the same with men.
Lupe Velez
I`m very fortunate in that I like people or I`d probably be in jail right now. It takes more time explaining why you can`t give an autograph, which is usually bullshit, than to just do it. I like to sign autographs of pictures because you`re giving people...
Charlie Sheen
You try to concentrate on the lyrics, the music, the melody, and putting it all together, and there`s a sign . . . and half of you is saying, `Ignore it`, but the other half is saying, `Read it, go ahead.` `My grandmother saw you at Candlestick.` That say...
Paul McCartney
I was Planning to Go into Architecture. But when I arrived [to sign up for courses] Architecture was filled up. Acting was right next to it. So I signed up for acting instead. - televised interview broadcast the day before "Laguna Heat" was shown on N.Y. ...
Tom Selleck
My hand still shakes when I sign autographs. I still go and sit in the movies like everyone else and look up there and go "God! Movie stars! Wow!" And I`m in this business. I walk out there just fascinated and I always want to stay like that. I`m just a l...
Kim Basinger
I`ve never found therapy to be a sign of weakness; I`ve found the opposite to be true. The willingness to have a mirror held up to you definitely requires strength. (2005)
Brooke Shields
I love Italy and I have a deep tie with my Italian roots. I stand for Kerry, I hope he will arrive at the White House. We need a different Government to represent America. The change of presidency would be a clear and international sign to say that we are...
