Famous quotes containing the words top, ten, money, making and/or stars:

    “People think that at the top there isn’t much room. They tend to think of it as an Everest. My message is that there is tons of room at the top.”
    —Margaret Thatcher (b. 1925)

    “The Supreme Court would have pleased me more if they had concerned themselves about enforcing the compulsory education provisions for Negroes in the South as is done for white children. The next ten years would be better spent in appointing truant officers and looking after conditions in the homes from which the children come. Use to the limit what we already have.”
    —Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)

    “When a fellow says, it hain’t the money but the principle o’ the thing, it’s th’ money.”
    —Kin Hubbard (F. [Frank] Mckinney Hubbard)

    “Don’t you think I’ve had enough excitement for one evening, without the additional thrill of a strange man making love to me?”
    —John L. Balderston (1899–1954)

    “The sumptuous age of stars and images is reduced to a few artificial tornado effects, pathetic fake buildings, and childish tricks which the crowd pretends to be taken in by to avoid feeling too disappointed. Ghost towns, ghost people. The whole place has the same air of obsolescence about it as Sunset or Hollywood Boulevard.”
    —Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
