They Said Quotes

If I dated as many people as they said I have, then I would be dead, because it’s just not possible Picture Quote #1

I bounce my knees, but I do not have restless leg syndrome. I did an interview, I don’t even know who it was with, and they said I told them I have restless leg syndrome and it distracts me from my work. I do not have any syndrome Picture Quote #1

Friends can be a pain. They can be demanding and hard work. But maybe that’s because they’re the wrong friends. I read a quote once, can’t remember who by, but they said that your friends aren’t necessarily the people you like best, they’re just the people who got there first Picture Quote #1

The traveling salesmen fed me pills that made the lining of my veins feel scraped out, my jaw ached... I knew every raindrop by its name, I sensed everything before it happened. Like I knew a certain oldsmobile would stop even before it slowed, and by the sweet voices of the family inside, I knew we’d have an accident in the rain. I didn’t care. They said they’d take me all the way Picture Quote #1

I know what they said even if they would not say it to my face. People love to talk. They love to slander you if you have any substance Picture Quote #1

Pride makes a man, it drives him, it is the shield wall around his reputation... Men die, they said, but reputation does not die Picture Quote #1

I didn’t know how to say goodbye. Words were stupid. They said so little. Yet they opened up holes you could fall into and never climb out of again Picture Quote #1

Nothing is ever the same as they said it was. It’s what I’ve never seen before that I recognize Picture Quote #1

They said you have to use your five best players but I found you win with the five who fit together the best Picture Quote #1

They said I was the greatest pitcher they ever sawI couldnt understand why they couldnt give me no justice Picture Quote #1

Politicians were like talking dogs in a circus: the fact that they existed was uncommonly interesting, but no sane person would actually believe what they said Picture Quote #1

They hadn’t even gotten their first paychecks yet,... My biggest thing was giving them a sense of reality and what costs would be. We outlined costs and a budget, and by the time we finished they said they could take maybe one vacation a year. They started to understand reality versus their dreams Picture Quote #1

They said daydreaming was against the law, but some of us escaped, slipping out windows and over cyclone fences, some of us flying away with heads like balloons. We taught our dogs to love the flavor of homework and became expert forgers of our parentsâ?? signatures. We knew they were teaching us how to die but some of us said no in our stealthy and stubborn ways Picture Quote #1

When I started, department stores were either very fashion, or very tailored, so the two never mixed. I mixed it, and they said you’re too tailored for fashion and too fashion for tailoring. So I had to move the market. So that’s what I did Picture Quote #1

It is immature and lazy to imagine we know everything there is to know about someone before we know that someone. We don’t know their stories, their histories, their real live human feelings. We don’t know their favorite movies and best memories and what makes them afraid. It is unfair to take one fact, one thing they’ve said or we heard they said, or one thing they wrote, or someone else’s experience, or a group they identify with and make a character sketch. If people did that to us, the picture would be so woefully incomplete, we wouldn’t even recognize our own description Picture Quote #1

I used to take everything at face value. Because, when I say something, I mean it... so I used to feel that everybody else meant what they said. But of course that wasn’t true. And life isn’t that sweet and simple Picture Quote #1

They said the black oil wouldn’t come ashore. Well, it is ashore. It’s here to stay and it’s going to keep coming Picture Quote #1

Everyone felt comfortable with these guys and what their vision was, and when they said they want to keep the staff intact, that was very encouraging Picture Quote #1

They say that no one’s gonna play this on the radio. They said the melancholy blues were dead and gone. But only songs like these played in minor keys, keep those memories holding on Picture Quote #1

I don’t accept what people say. I took something to be copied recently, to be enlarged and blown up, and they said it couldn’t be done, and I went somewhere five minutes away, and they did it Picture Quote #1

Of course, I should have done what doctors said and walked for miles every day and not eaten great amounts of butter. But then, life is life, and if we all did what they said we should do, it would be a different world Picture Quote #1

It’s very important to remember that the philosophers were social dissidents. They were social critics. The man in the street or woman in the street did not particularly cherish what they said. Socrates was killed Picture Quote #1

I started swimming when I was four because my brother wanted to join a swim team, and I wanted to do what he did. They said I had to be six, but if I could swim a lap, then I could participate. So I swam a lap, and the rest is history Picture Quote #1

I wish my nose was smaller and that I was a little taller. I also had this perennial pimple problem, so I felt people were just being polite when they said I was beautiful Picture Quote #1

I’m an actor who they said was wrinkled and balding and everything else when I was in my early 30’s. Most of the people who wrote that who thought they were younger than me are now bald and wrinkled Picture Quote #1

Everyone’s got skeletons in their closet, and I’ve got a million in mine, believe me. I tested the envelope; I pushed it. Whenever somebody in authority told me not to do something, I did it just to find out why they said not to do it Picture Quote #1

She would be a new person, she vowed. They said no matter how far a mule travels it can never come back a horse, but she would show them all Picture Quote #1

And as I grew older, I then auditioned for the Royal Academy of Music in London, and they said, well, no, we won’t accept you, because we haven’t a clue - you know - of the future of a so-called ‘deaf’ musician. And I just couldn’t quite accept that Picture Quote #1

You cannot friend a hawk, they said, unless you are a hawk yourself, alone and only a sojourner in the land, without friends or the need of them Picture Quote #1
