What I write is not for little girls.

The cat is a dilettante in fur.

It is difficult to obtain the friendship of a cat. It is a philosophical animal... one that does not place its affections thoughtlessly.

Yes, the work comes out more beautiful from a material that resists the process, verse, marble, onyx, or enamel.

Books follow morals, and not morals books.

The word poet literally means maker: anything which is not well made doesn't exist.

I am one of those for whom superfluity is a necessity.

Chance is the pseudonym of God when he did not want to sign.

Any man who does not have his inner world to translate is not an artist.

Critical lice are like body lice, which desert corpses to seek the living.

A cat will be your friend, but never your slave.

I am a man for whom the outside world exists.

You do not become a critic until it has been completely established to your own satisfaction that you cannot be a poet.

Art is beauty, the perpetual invention of detail, the choice of words, the exquisite care of execution.

If you are worthy of its affection, a cat will be your friend but never your slave.

Sooner barbarity than boredom.

To love is to admire with the heart; to admire is to love with the mind.

I was born to travel and write verse.

Eyes so transparent that through them the soul is seen.

What I write is not for little girls.

Brevity never fatigues therefore brevity is always a welcome guest.

The cat makes himself the companion of your hours of solitude, melancholy and toil.

Fortune loves to give bedroom slippers to people with wooden legs, and gloves to those with no hands.

I've got more junk in the trunk than most 5-foot-1 blonde girls, and I like it.

I wouldn't like to see a chick of mine taking her clothes off and kissing a fellow on screen. And my girls must get very hurt when they see me doing it.

It was pretty extensive - we worked out 8 hours a day, 5 days a week, for 3 months, which I think is more than anybody in the Olympics. I thought well I don't need this, the girls need it, but it was a gift.

We show girls were forced to live in whorehouses in each town, no other accommodations being available.

I still have horrible luck with girls.

Every time the guys were knocked out by my guitar playing and the girls were knocked out by the type of songs I did. That set us apart from the average blues band.

I miss Saturday morning, rolling out of bed, not shaving, getting into my car with my girls, driving to the supermarket, squeezing the fruit, getting my car washed, taking walks.

I don't like going to the mall. I'm not really like the other girls. I just like to go out on the golf course and play. Golf is fun and feels really good.

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

My purpose... to go on with my heart and soul, devoting all my energies to Girl Scouts, and heart and hand with them, we will make our lives and the lives of the future girls happy, healthy and holy.

When I was a kid, the idea of why I wanted acting to be the thing I do for the rest of my life was different. It was, Oh yeah, I'll get girls and be famous.

In my dreams, I could be a Princess, and that's what I was. Like most little girls, I believed nothing less than a Prince could make my dreams come true.

One of the biggest development issues in the world is the education of girls. In the United States and Europe, it has been accepted, but not in Africa and the developing countries.

Dancing is a wonderful training for girls, it's the first way you learn to guess what a man is going to do before he does it.

When I first started editing GQ, it gave the impression of being, and in fact was, a gay magazine. There were female models in it and there were women on the cover, but the boys were always much, much more beautiful than the girls.

One's prime is elusive. You little girls, when you grow up, must be on the alert to recognize your prime at whatever time of your life it may occur. You must then live it to the full.

For the past few years, I was the more visible Asian performer, and I think it gave young girls a kind of role model showing it's possible to actually reach success doing movies.

It took a brave editor in the U.S. to sign a contract for Dancing Girls, and without her belief in the book, I'm not sure it would ever have found its way into print.

Girls like to be played with, and rumpled a little too, sometimes.

I wanna record these girls individually. And then, I wanna cut a blues album on me. But all of it, original stuff, you know. When I listen to the blues today, it's like they all sounds similar. I wanna do something different, to try to add to the blues flavor.

I beg you to look at the promising boys and beautiful girls in your homes and in your communities, and then you will not put these temptations in their way.

A number of girls of my acquaintance went to school to the nuns of the Congregational Nunnery, or Sisters of Charity, as they are sometimes called.

If I had girls to educate I would not have them learn both music and drawing.

When all the girls were getting all made up and getting into all that girl stuff in junior high I was out playing softball or touch football with the guys.

Watch MTV and you can see what the music scene is like in England. The Spice Girls? Not a lot of creativity in the commercial area. There are still great musicians in England, but not a lot being heard that much.

I really would rather have gone to New York, since all my training had been in theater, but I didn't have the guts to go there alone. I knew only one person in New York, and that was a man. What I needed was a woman. That's the way Southern girls thought.
