• Pero, ¡ah, pescar con una lombriz y luego no pescar tu pez! Fracasar con una mosca no es una desgracia: tu arte puede haber sido impecable, tu paciencia intachable hasta el final. Pero la filosofía de la pesca con lombriz es la de los resultados, la de tener algo tangible en la cesta al terminar la jornada.

• And in a small house five miles away was a man who held my mud-encrusted charm bracelet out to his wife. Look what I found at the old industrial park," he said. "A construction guy said they were bulldozing the whole lot. They're afraid of sink holes like that one that swallowed the cars." His wife poured him some water from the sink as he fingered the tiny bike and the ballet shoe, the flower basket and the thimble. He held out the muddy bracelet as she set down his glass. This little girl's grown up by now," she said. Almost. Not quite. I wish you all a long and happy life.

• Ama wipes her hands on her apron, looks up at our old roof with new eyes, and lifts the baby from his basket. She twirls him in the air, her skirts flying around her ankles the way the clouds swirl around the mountain cap--her laughter fresh and strange and musical to my ears.

• I have seen myself lose intolerance, narrowness, bigotry, complacence, pride and a whole bushel-basket of other intellectual vices through my contact with Nature and with men. And when you take weeds out of a garden it gives you room to grow flowers. So, every time I lost a little self-satisfaction, or arrogance, I could plant some broadness or love of my own in its place, and after a while the garden of my mind began to bloom and be fragrant and I found myself better equipped for my work and more useful to others as a consequence.

  Luther Burbank

• Cualquiera puede ver que el poco dinero que se obtiene se malgasta a medias, porque no se puede gastar con provecho. La peor comida llega a los pobres, que su pobreza les hace comprar y su necesidad les hace comer. Sus estómagos son la papelera del Estado. Les toca tragarse todas las adulteraciones del mercado.

  George Holyoake

• I don't want to be a basket case on set. I try to sort of quiet all of that, all those thoughts, kinda just let yourself be aware of them when you're preparing to do the work but then once you get there you have to feel as free as possible. Anything that I perceived as something that ran the risk of stressing me out, I just left outside the studio doors because I didn't want to undermine myself.

• Los modales geniales son buenos, y la capacidad de adaptarse a cualquier circunstancia, pero el premio mayor de la vida, la fortuna suprema de un hombre, es nacer con una inclinación hacia alguna actividad que le proporcione empleo y felicidad, ya sea hacer cestas, o espadas, o canales, o estatutos, o canciones. No dudo de que éste fuera el significado de Socrates, cuando declaró que los artistas eran los únicos verdaderamente sabios, por serlo realmente y no en apariencia.

• When children ask me what's my favorite [role], I say to them, "Imagine having ten beautiful new puppies in a basket and you had to say which one is your favorite, and you simply couldn't because you love them all for different reasons." POPPINS was such a learning experience, as was THE SOUND OF MUSIC. I tell you, every one of them just helped me grow in what I do and did and each one was such a phenomenal working experience.

• Though most of us don't hunt, our eyes are still the great monopolists of our senses. To taste or touch your enemy or your food, you have to be unnervingly close to it. To smell or hear it, you can risk being further off. But vision can rush through the fields and up the mountains, travel across time, country, and parsecs of outer space, and collect bushel baskets of information as it goes. Animals that hear high frequencies better than we do

• It's important to understand it's OK to control the subject. If most editorial stories were photographed just as they are, editors would end up throwing most in the waste basket. You have to work hard at making an editorial picture. You need to re-stage things, rearrange things so that they work for the story, with truth and without lying.

  Alfred Eisenstaedt

• Each of us, with money, gets further and further away from those moments where the hand pulls the beet root from the soil, shakes the fish from the net into the basket -- not to mention the way it separates us from one another, so that when enough money comes between people, they lie apart like parts of a chicken hacked up for stewing.

• It is my misfortune - and probably my delight - to use things as my passions tell me. What a miserable fate for a painter who adores blondes to have to stop himself putting them into a picture because they don't go with the basket of fruit! . . . I put all the things I like into my pictures. The things - so much the worse for them. They just have to put up with it.

• Donde realmente tienes tus huevos en una canasta y esa brecha sucede y sabes que debes irte pero sigues enamorado y simplemente no sabes qué hacer. Te golpea porque no es como -- eres un tramposo, y un mentiroso, y te odio, y no eres bueno, y me voy. No es eso. Es como, estoy atormentada. A pesar de que has hecho esto y lo sé, todavía no sé qué hacer. Sé que debería irme, pero no quiero. Y es por eso que es una cosa tan f***.

• Nunca he puesto todos los huevos en la misma cesta, por así decirlo. Sé que la música y la actuación son cosas que quiero hacer el resto de mi vida. Pero si de repente dejara de hacerlo, estaría bien. No es el fin de mi vida. Sé quién soy, fuera de esto, y creo que eso es algo muy importante.

• The word passive does a disservice to investors considering their options. Indexing provides an effective means of owning the market and allows investors to participate in the returns of a basket of stocks. The basket of stocks changes over time as stocks are added or removed based on its rules.
