Crunch Quotes - Page 2

• The devil take these people and their language! They take a dozen monosyllabic words in their jaws, chew them, crunch them and spit them out again, and call that speaking. Fortunately they are by nature fairly silent, and although they gaze at us open-mouthed, they spare us long conversations.

• Inglaterra es, al fin y al cabo, la tierra donde se golpea a los niños, se apalea a las esposas y a los bebés, donde los hooligans del fútbol crujen y donde Miss Whip y Miss Lash ejercen su oficio como en ningún otro lugar del mundo occidental.

• It seems that every movie is a remake of something that was better when it was first released in a foreign language, as a 1960s TV show, or even as a comic book. Now you’ve got theme park rides as the source material of movies. The only things left are breakfast cereal mascots. In our lifetime, we will see Johnny Depp playing Captain Crunch.

• I dont have a trainer. I have what I call the poor mans workout and the rich mans diet. I run for 1 hour every day and do 500 sit-ups and 1000 crunches, and I lift weights at the Y for 28 bucks a month, even if its 3 in the morning.

• Most short stories have but one plot. The very best, however, have what I call a plot-and-a-half – that is, a main plot and a small subplot that feeds in a twist or an unexpected piece of business that ads crunch and flavor to the story as a whole.

• With billions of years, who knows what science might make possible? Why, it might even make it possible for an intelligence, or data patterns representing it, to survive a big crunch and exist again in the next cycle of creation. Such an entity might even have science sufficient to allow it to influence the parameters for the next cycle, creating a designer universe into which that entity itself will be reborn already armed with billions of years worth of knowledge and wisdom.

• The working class of England take their deracination completely for granted. Disenchantment is the happy code that informs every byway of the underclass: service jobs, celebrity dreams, Lotto wins, leisured poverty on pre-crunch credit cards, it's all there, part of the story of an English people whose grandparents never had it so good.

• Hace dos generaciones, sólo unos pocos niños desafortunados veían a alguien golpeado en la cabeza con un ladrillo, tiroteado, embestido por un coche, volado por los aires, inmolado, violado o torturado. Ahora todos los niños, junto con sus mayores, ven esas imágenes todos los días de su vida y se espera que las disfruten. ... El niño de siete años que esconde los ojos ante el drama familiar de policías y ladrones se insensibiliza cuatro años más tarde hasta el punto de hacer crujir patatas fritas ante el último vídeo desagradable.

• Love says, mine. Love says, I could eat you up. Love says, stay as you are, be my own private thing, don't you dare have ideas I don't share. Love has just got to gobble the other, bones and all, crunch. I don't want to do that. I sure don't want it done to me!

• So here's to the girls on the go
  Everybody tries.
  Look into their eyes,
  And you'll see what they know:
  Everybody dies.
  A toast to that invincible bunch,
  The dinosaurs surviving the crunch.
  Let's hear it for the ladies who lunch
  Everybody rise!

• A lot of environmental and biological science depends on technology to progress. Partly I'm talking about massive server farms that help people crunch genetic data - or atmospheric data. But I also mean the scientific collaborations that the Internet makes possible, where scientists in India and Africa can work with people in Europe and the Americas to come up with solutions to what are, after all, global problems.

• A lot of girls will do regular crunches, when that is building muscle in the middle of your stomach on top of - right in the middle area, where you might not want it to be. There's certain types of sit-ups and crunches and moves that kind of build the core set of your muscles inside. There's a different way of looking at exercise and optimizing it for the female body, if that makes sense.

• If we're to honor the heritage of our country, whether it be in terms of religious freedom, whether it be in terms of truly protecting life, protecting not just the unborn but who comes next, the infirm, the elderly, the maimed, the disabled - that's who comes next as we get into the budget crunch of taking care of those people in the years - I believe we ought to have that debate honest and openly.

• Al menos una vez cada ser humano debería tener que correr para salvar su vida, para enseñarle que la leche no viene de los supermercados, que la seguridad no viene de los policías, que las "noticias" no son algo que les ocurre a otras personas. Podría aprender cómo vivían sus antepasados y que él mismo no es diferente: en el fondo, su vida depende de su agilidad, su estado de alerta y su ingenio personal.
