Famous quotes containing the words you think, you, british, series and/or composition:

    When a toddler uses profanity, don’t make a big deal about it. If you do, you give the child more power. After all, it’s only a word—one that won’t do much harm to anybody. In fact, if you think about it, a nasty word is a step up from hitting or biting someone. So look at it as a sign of growth.
    Lawrence Balter (20th century)

    Give me a country where it is the most natural thing in the world for a government that does not understand you to let you alone.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    I’m a bad son. Is it the chromosomes, do you think, or is it England?
    David Mercer, British screenwriter, and Karel Reisz. Morgan (David Warner)

    Through a series of gradual power losses, the modern parent is in danger of losing sight of her own child, as well as her own vision and style. It’s a very big price to pay emotionally. Too bad it’s often accompanied by an equally huge price financially.

    If I don’t write to empty my mind, I go mad. As to that regular, uninterrupted love of writing ... I do not understand it. I feel it as a torture, which I must get rid of, but never as a pleasure. On the contrary, I think composition a great pain.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
