My sisters like cooking at my place. It has a bit more room, and the food tastes a little bit better. A big pot of spaghetti and sauce, some warm French bread - works all the time. I think I've been eating pasta for 26 years.
Tom Brady

My mother always called me an ugly weed, so I never was aware of anything until I was older. Plain girls should have someone telling them they are beautiful. Sometimes this works miracles.
Hedy Lamarr

People haven't got the interest in long long works these days. A lack of interest which I share.
Norman MacCaig

In Germany I have been acknowledged again since the fall of Hitler, but my works, partly suppressed by the Nazis and partly destroyed by the war; have not yet been republished there.
Herman Hesse

Either it works or it doesn't.
Isaac Mizrahi

With a painter or a sculptor, one cannot begin to alter his works, but an architect has to put up with anything, because he makes utility objects - the building is there to be used, and times change.

Billy Joel

Shane MacGowan

If a man works like a horse for his money, there are a lot of girls anxious to take him down the bridal path.
Marty Allen

Art works because it appeals to certain faculties of the mind. Music depends on details of the auditory system, painting and sculpture on the visual system. Poetry and literature depend on language.
Steven Pinker

Why are empirical questions about how the mind works so weighted down with political and moral and emotional baggage?
Steven Pinker

The goal in life is to be solid, whereas the way that life works is totally fluid, so you can never actually achieve that goal.
Damien Hirst

I think that some works are more accessible than others.
Jim Hodges

The great philosophers and the great works are standards for the selection of what is essential. Everything that we do in studying the history of philosophy ultimately serves their better understanding.
Karl Jaspers

Without any assistance whatever, I founded a school in Weimar in 10 years. Only I could perform certain works with the scanty means that I dared not ask anyone else to work with.
Franz Liszt

I find little in the works of Beethoven, Berlioz, Wagner and others when they are led by a conductor who functions like a windmill.
Franz Liszt

Ignorant free speech often works against the speaker. That is one of several reasons why it must be given rein instead of suppressed.
