My main wish is to get my books into other people's rooms, and to keep other people's books out of mine.
Samuel Butler

George Bush is a fan of mine, he came to see me in the Seventies. His coke dealer brought him.
Tom Waits

You've got to know your limitations. I don't know what your limitations are. I found out what mine were when I was twelve. I found out that there weren't too many limitations, if I did it my way.
Johnny Cash

Above all, a query letter is a sales pitch and it is the single most important page an unpublished writer will ever write. It's the first impression and will either open the door or close it. It's that important, so don't mess it up. Mine took 17 drafts and two weeks to write.
Nicholas Sparks

We all have faults, and mine is being wicked.
James Thurber

The Marshall is supposed to be 200 watts, but mine's never worked right; it peaks out at 80.
Stevie Ray Vaughan

I think about the meaning of pain. Pain is personal. It really belongs to the one feeling it. Probably the only thing that is your own. I like mine.
Henry Rollins

Mine is the first generation able to contemplate the possibility that we may live our entire lives without going to war or sending our children to war.
Tony Blair

No one could understand the bond between me and my brother. I struggled to understand the forces that drove his soul in one direction and mine in another.

I feel fine, I don't care who the director is. All you have to do is know what your doing - all of us - everybody in the business - that's all you ask anyone - you know your job, I know mine, let's go do it.
Morgan Freeman

I don't know what my favorite film of mine is... But I think the most important film I was in was 'Glory'.
Morgan Freeman

If I stumbled badly in doing the job, I think it would have made life more difficult for women, and that was a great concern of mine and still is.

Charles Babbage

No art is less spontaneous than mine. What I do is the result of reflection and the study of the great masters.
Edgar Degas

I knew that with a mouth like mine, I just hadda be a star or something.
Barbra Streisand

Affluence separates people. Poverty knits 'em together. You got some sugar and I don't; I borrow some of yours. Next month you might not have any flour; well, I'll give you some of mine.
Ray Charles

I have felt cats rubbing their faces against mine and touching my cheek with claws carefully sheathed. These things, to me, are expressions of love.
James Herriot

Personally, I'd never seen a graphic novel. I knew they existed because friends of mine like Jonathan Ross collect them and some very literate and intelligent people really rate the graphic novel as a form.
Stephen Fry

Johnny Rotten. He's a big fan of mine. I used to see him out in the audience in England and he'd stand up and holler. He's funny. Smart too, and a nice guy. Don't think he's a jerk because he isn't.
