Marriage resembles a pair of shears, so joined that they cannot be separated; often moving in opposite directions, yet always punishing anyone who comes between them.
Sydney Smith

My children, as long as you live, the shadow of the Hiss Case will brush you. In every pair of eyes that rests on you, you will see pass, like a cloud passing behind a woods in winter, the memory of your father - dissembled in friendly eyes, lurking in unfriendly eyes.
Whittaker Chambers

My father is a real idealist, and he's all about learning. If I asked for a pair of Nikes growing up, it was just a resounding 'No.' But if I asked for a saxophone, one would appear and next day and I'd be signed up for lessons. So anything to do with education or learning, my father would spare no expense.
Hugh Jackman

My son - and what's a song? A thing begot within a pair of minutes, thereabout, a lump bred up in darkness.
Thomas Kyd

No ghost was every seen by two pair of eyes.
Thomas Carlyle

No, I'm happy doing this. Five sweaters and a pair of dirty pants, you can make pretty good money.
McLean Stevenson

One hair of a woman can draw more than a hundred pair of oxen.
James Howell

Originality is simply a pair of fresh eyes.
Thomas W. Higginson

Pair up in threes.
Joe DiMaggio

Richard was in heavy, heavy costume, he could hardly sit, you know, and I turned up and they put me in two layers of silk, so I played him much lighter - you know, floating around in a pair of slippers, a bit of a hippy.
Michael Gambon

The dove act? I'm still working on it. I don't think it's perfect yet. I got my first pair of doves when I was 14 years old. That was the beginning of the formation of that act. So it's been 24 years now that I've been working on it.
Lance Burton

The first things I did when I got out of school in '65 was to buy a pair of Levis and pierce my ears.
Mink Stole

The problem is no longer that with every pair of hands that comes into the world there comes a hungry stomach. Rather it is that, attached to those hands are sharp elbows.
Paul Samuelson

The Victorian era is the sexiest age for me, but I also like a woman in a pair of jeans.
Dylan McDermott

There is definitely something sexy about a girl with an attitude and a pair of leather pants.
Eliza Dushku

There is room in the smallest cottage for a happy loving pair.
Friedrich Schiller

To treat a poor wretch with a bottle of Burgundy, and fill his snuff-box, is like giving a pair of laced ruffles to a man that has never a shirt on his back.
Tom Brown

Usually a poem takes shape accoustically - a line or a pair of lines will repeat itself in my ear.
Thomas Lynch

We may say that a basic substance is one which has a lone pair of electrons which may be used to complete the stable group of another atom, and that an acid is one which can employ a lone pair from another molecule in completing the stable group of one of its own atoms.
Gilbert Newton Lewis

We've been asked to do 'Playboy' together, me and Victoria, as a pair. I don't think I'll ever go naked, but I'll never say never.
David Beckham
