We've demonstrated a strong track record of being very disciplined with the use of our cash. We don't let it burn a hole in our pocket, we don't allow it to motivate us to do stupid acquisitions.

Steve Jobs

We allow no geniuses around our Studio.
Walt Disney

It's morally wrong to allow a sucker to keep his money.
W. C. Fields

There's a drive in me that won't allow me to do certain things that are easy.
Johnny Depp

You have to take risks. We will only understand the miracle of life fully when we allow the unexpected to happen.
Paulo Coelho

Men have had every advantage of us in telling their own story. Education has been theirs in so much higher a degree; the pen has been in their hands. I will not allow books to prove anything.
Jane Austen
