To her mommy and daddy, the empress never has on any clothes--and knows it. Frank Pittman

When Vanity kissed Vanity, a hundred happy Junes ago, he pondered o'er her breathlessly, and, that all men might ever know, he rhymed her eyes with life and death: "Thru Time I'll save my love!" he said. . . yet Beauty vanished with his breath, and, with her lovers, she was dead. . . -Ever his wit and not her eyes, ever his art and not her hair: "Who'd learn a trick in rhyme, be wise and pause before his sonnet there". . .

I'm from Boulder, Colorado, which went through a lot of dramatic changes when I was growing up. Jello Biafra

Let's improvise. Let's just do stuff." But Jesus Christ. He's Ralph Fiennes! Jeremy Irvine

If you decide to shoot you have made the big decision. Where you place your shot is merely a technical matter. Jeff Cooper

wise kings race
I saw in 'the wandering Jew' the personification of the Jewish people, exiled in the Middle Ages. Nevertheless, they are once again extremely rich, owing to their unfailing rude greediness and their indefatigable activity. With their hard-heartedness that they extend toward people of other faiths and races they are at the point of making themselves kings of the world. This people can thank its obstinacy that France will be Judized within fifty years. Already some wise Jews prophesy this frankly. George Sand
wise exercise men
All your trouble comes from lack of exercise. A man of your strength and constitution ought always to have kept physically active.

It takes place in the legs as well.
