Speaks cheerful English and in the past has written this language with a paintbrush that talks.
Jimmy Breslin

If there's anything I'd hate as a son-in-law, it's an actor; and if there's anything I think I'd hate worse than an actor as a son-in-law, it's an English actor.
Joseph P. Kennedy

Me fail english? Thats unpossible.
Matt Groening

I know my own heart to be entirely English.
Princess Anne

And I agreed with that, and I couldn't wait to change my name anyway, because I'm not too fond of the name of Reginald. It's a very kind of '50s English name.
Elton John

English is clipped in speech. Texas is exactly the opposite.

Wallace Stevens

I didn't speak English until I came to Pittsburgh.

Jet Li

Hermann Ebbinghaus

Writing in English was a major challenge. I didn't want other songwriters to write for me. I wanted to preserve the spirit of my songs in Spanish. I am the same Shakira in English as I am in Spanish.
Shakira

You know, I do speak the Queens English. It's just the wrong Queens that's all. It's over the 59th Street Bridge. It's not over the Atlantic Ocean.
Cyndi Lauper

The number one secret of being a successful writer is this: marry an English major.
Stephen Ambrose

Manfred von Richthofen
