Stare Quotations
If the stars should appear but one night every thousand years how man would marvel and stare.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
I have known a vast quantity of nonsense talked about bad men not looking you in the face. Don't trust that conventional idea. Dishonesty will stare honesty out of countenance any day in the week, if there is anything to be got by it.
Charles Dickens
Sometimes we stare so long at a door that is closing that we see too late the one that is open.
Alexander Graham Bell
I always find it kind of embarrassing, kind of funny, and kind of exciting. In New York I'm recognized a lot, although nobody says anything. You know, they stare at you just a second too long. But in Paris it's not as commonplace to be recognized.
Marc Jacobs
If I go to a restaurant, other people stare. The meal is ruined.
Brigitte Bardot
I stare at myself in the mirror and I think, 'Wow, I'm really great-looking.'... I think I'm the greatest, anyway.
Iggy Pop
Happiness is like a cloud, if you stare at it long enough, it evaporates.
Sarah McLachlan
I don't stare at a sheet of paper and try to think of a good word to use. I try to see where the story should go.
Brad Paisley
The vision must be followed by the venture. It is not enough to stare up the steps - we must step up the stairs.
Vance Havner
Success? You can't get a big head about it. When people stare at me, they could be whispering to their friend, 'That guy sucks! Have you seen him before? He's horrible.'
David Spade
