Goldwin Smith I once said the Queen of England could use some fashion advice. Kathie Lee Gifford What you have is two men seeking the White House; they're both products of prominent New England families. They both went to private boarding schools. They both went to a prestigious university. Mark Shields I always thought it hadn't influenced me very much, but I heard from many people from England that many motives from German fairytales are to be found in my books. Cornelia Funke I divide my time between homes in Arizona and England, six months a year in each place. Terri Windling I had almost forgotten to tell you that I have already been to the Parliament House; and yet this is of most importance. For, had I seen nothing else in England but this, I should have thought my journey thither amply rewarded. Karl Philipp Moritz Upon the Constitution, upon the pre-existing legal rights of the People, as understood in this country and in England, I have argued that this House is bound to revive the Petition under debate. Caleb Cushing Around the property I have here, I'm about to put an all weather race track. I'm about to build stables. I'm about to ship over a couple of my thoroughbreds from England. Davy Jones Spring has many American faces. There are cities where it will come and go in a day and counties where it hangs around and never quite gets there. Summer is drawn blinds in Louisiana, long winds in Wyoming, shade of elms and maples in New England. Archibald MacLeish It will be quite satisfactory if you open them gradually, as the circumstances may require; but the President assures you that this will not be the case if you make a treaty with England first. Townsend Harris I had a place in England and was commuting from England to Australia, which is pretty stupid, but after two years I sort of knew what I wanted to do, more or less. Diane Cilento Will I return to England? I don't know. I'll think it over. Lillie Langtry I was always ready to leave England for some absurd reason. Claire Forlani I was born in Liverpool in England, and I lived there for the first nine years of my life. Peter Shaffer I have also just finished three weeks on a soap opera in England. The soap opera is a rather famous one called Crossroads. It was first on television 25 years ago, and it has recently been brought back. I play the part of a businessman called David Wheeler. Jeremy Bulloch Our family arrived in England in 1960. At that time I thought the war was ancient history. But if I think of 15 years ago from now, that's 1990, and that seems like yesterday to me. Kazuo Ishiguro Wherever on this planet ideals of personal freedom and dignity apply, there you will find the cultural inheritance of England. Karel Capek In the literature of France Moliere occupies the same kind of position as Cervantes in that of Spain, Dante in that of Italy, and Shakespeare in that of England. His glory is more than national - it is universal. Lytton Strachey There is probably nothing wrong with art for art's sake if we take the phrase seriously, and not take it to mean the kind of poetry written in England forty years ago. Allen Tate He told me I didn't understand, that we were from the bleak industrial wastes of North England, or something, and that we didn't understand the Internet. I told him Fall fans invented the Internet. They were on there in 1982. Mark E. Smith |
