Let me tell you something that we Israelis have against Moses. He took us 40 years through the desert in order to bring us to the one spot in the Middle East that has no oil!
Golda Meir
Each blade of grass has its spot on earth whence it draws its life, its strength; and so is man rooted to the land from which he draws his faith together with his life.
Joseph Conrad
I can spot empty flattery and know exactly where I stand. In the end it`s really only my own approval or disapproval that means anything.
Agnetha Faltskog
Have not prisons - which kill all will and force of character in man, which enclose within their walls more vices than are met with on any other spot of the globe - always been universities of crime?
Peter Kropotkin
[on the role of "The Daily Show" (1996)]: When we spot silliness, we say so out loud. We`re not really Democrat or Republican. We`re out to stop that political trend of repeating things again and again until people are forced to believe them.
Jon Stewart
There`s something timeless and important about making people laugh, about being the right spot in their day. - as quoted in the Dec 7, 2004 issue of Woman`s World
Reese Witherspoon
On working with Robin Williams and Billy Crystal: "These guys are hilarious. You go in to work with the lines memorized, and the second you get out there it`s like - Oops, there goes the script! They`re rewriting it, improvising on the spot and I have to ...
Charlie Hofheimer
[on improvising dialogue as Scott Evil in scenes with Mike Myers in Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery (1997):] "[Dr. Evil`s] whole shhh! thing was made up on the spot. It`s a testament to Mike Myers` brilliance. They just keep going after the wr...
Seth Green
I will bury anyone who ever tries to take my spot at the top of the business. No one is better than I am, that`s just a fact of life. I will always have better matches and draw more fans than all the rest of the guys combined.
Paul Levesque
I did a scene after a huge rainfall and there was all this crap floating around in the water. We finally found a clear spot and started frolicking in the waves before looking down to see something just below the water. It was a big bloated dead guy. I let...
Nicole Eggert
[on the legendary Woodstock Festival] I didn`t want to be part of that thing. I liked the town. I felt they exploited the shit out of that, going up there and getting 15 million people all in the same spot. That don`t excite me. The flower generation - is...
Bob Dylan
When I was living in New York and didn`t have a penny to my name, I would walk around the streets and occasionally I would see an alcove or something. And I`d think, that`ll be good, that`ll be a good spot for me when I`m homeless.
Larry David
I don`t read reviews. I can always spot an actor who`s read his reviews, because if they`re good, he`s swaying about the stage, and if they`re bad, he`s changed his performance. He comes in limping or something.
Joseph Fiennes
I have a soft spot for secret passageways, bookshelves that open into silence, staircases that go down into a void, and hidden safes. I even have one myself, but I won`t tell you where. At the other end of the spectrum are statistics which I hate with all...
Luis Bunuel
You have to show respect for the other guys. It`s good to know we have a spot in the playoffs but still you don`t want to take things for granted.
Albert Pujols
You get used to the guys hitting around you [when you have a regular spot in the batting order]. You know how a pitcher is going to throw to the guy in front of you and behind you. It`s a comfort thing.
Angus McQuilken
Would it be possible to stand still on one spot more majestically - while simulating a triumphant march forward - than it is done by the two English Houses of Parliament?
Aimee Litka
With the new acquisitions, there are a few spots taken already. So mentally, I`m coming into camp like I`m a rookie. I know for a fact I don`t have a guaranteed spot, so I`m just coming out, working hard and trying to make the team like everyone else.
Jordin Tootoo
Who do I think was the greatest? This might shock you: Elgin Baylor. He did so many great things. Nobody could guard him, playing in the forward spot. I`d love to see some of today`s greats playing against Elgin. They couldn`t guard him. Nobody could.
Oscar Robertson
Whitesnake more than most rock bands would get a very significant percentage of women in the audience and those were the ones I`d hear the voices because from where I am on stage is a pretty good spot.
David Coverdale
Let me tell you something that we Israelis have against Moses. He took us 40 years through the desert in order to bring us to the one spot in the Middle East that has no oil!
