Poetry seems to sink into us the way prose doesn't. I can still quote verses I learned when I was very young, but I have trouble remembering one line of a novel I just finished reading.
Jack Prelutsky

Real socialism is inside man. It wasn't born with Marx. It was in the communes of Italy in the Middle Ages. You can't say it is finished.
Dario Fo

Religion is essentially the art and the theory of the remaking of man. Man is not a finished creation.
Edmund Burke

Right now I just finished writing the music for a Rugrats feature film and the third week of September I go to London, and the Orchestra is going to perform the score.
Mark Mothersbaugh

Same thing with film, by the time you've finished shooting and you've really been into everything, you've touched up everything in the editing room. You've gone in there and taken little bits from everything.
Ridley Scott

Since change is constant, you wonder if people crave death because it's the only way they can get anything really finished.
Chuck Palahniuk

So they didn't let anybody else off. I can't live like this, I'm finished. Auschwitz was easy.
Witold Pilecki

Some people would say my paintings show a future world and maybe they do, but I paint from reality. I put several things and ideas together, and perhaps, when I have finished, it could show the future.
H. R. Giger

Someone said that life is a party. You join in after it's started and leave before it's finished.
Elsa Maxwell

Sometimes a piece of music in the score isn't effective. When a score is too well finished with too many elements, sometimes it's too much.
Alejandro Amenabar

Sometimes you're not even sure which of your stories were failures. There are things I've written that I thought were complete catastrophes when I finished with them that have gone on to generate some of my most positive feedback.
Len Wein

Sun-bleached bones were most wonderful against the blue - that blue that will always be there as it is now after all man's destruction is finished.
Georgia O'Keeffe

That, for me, is a very important test of a young writer's commitment because most of them are going to have to continue doing that when they've finished the program.
Tobias Wolff

That's when we decided to stop in '66. Everyone thought we toured for years, you know, but we didn't. I joined in '62, and we'd finished touring in '66 to go into the studio where we could hear each other... and create any fantasy that came out of anybody's brain.
Ringo Starr

The bar was very high-we had to really make sure that we got what we really wanted, that it was a real finished album. We weren't going to give up until we got that.
Roger Andrew Taylor

The beauty of having a producer is that you have someone who says, You're finished.
Sheryl Crow

The biggest challenge was trying to convey the story of the making of a film that isn't finished yet - and which won't be finished until the third film, The Return of the King, reaches our cinemas towards the end of 2003!
Brian Sibley

The comedians all finished their acts with a song. They would get a certain amount of money from the song publishers and would use that money to pay the writers. None of them paid very much for their comedy material, but it all added up.
Denis Norden

The deadlines are much, much longer with books. When I was a reporter, a lot of times I'd come in at 8:30 a.m., get an assignment right away, interview somebody, turn the story in by 9:30, and have the finished story in the paper that landed on my desk by noon.
Margaret Haddix

The fans have played a massive part in getting us to where we are, but the job's not finished.
Steven Gerrard
