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

    It is not good to eat much honey, or to seek honor on top of honor.
    Bible: Hebrew, Proverbs 25:27.

    Give a girl an education and introduce her properly into the world, and ten to one but she has the means of settling well, without further expense to anybody.
    Jane Austen (1775–1817)

    The secret point of money and power in America is neither the things that money can buy nor power for power’s sake ... but absolute personal freedom, mobility, privacy. It is the instinct which drove America to the Pacific, all through the nineteenth century, the desire to be able to find a restaurant open in case you want a sandwich, to be a free agent, live by one’s own rules.
    Joan Didion (b. 1934)

    “Hello, Arthur. This is your mother. Do you remember me? . . . Someday you’ll get married and have children of your own and Honey, when you do, I only pray that they’ll make you suffer the way you’re making me. That’s a Mother’s Prayer.”
    Mike Nichols (20th century)

    I, too, await
    The hour of thy great wind of love and hate.
    When shall the stars be blown about the sky,
    Like the sparks blown out of a smithy, and die?
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
