Text Quotes
We are all socialists now, it seems. John McCain, David Cameron and Gordon Brown attack bankers’ irresponsible behaviour and salaries, and call for state intervention in the financial markets. But these calls will not get them elected or re-elected if they are addressed only to the banking sector.  (John Quotes) I learned that the majority of the time, simplicity is the best way to go about things as you peel away the layers... that’s when you start finding the gold... I can’t say that was from my own acting. That was from observing actors like John Spencer and Martin Sheen... I had a chance just to observe.  (John Quotes) Everyone eventually winds up writing about themselves - the problem is finding the best way to go about it. To write about oneself literally, in the first person, presumes a more interesting personal life and philosophy than most rock lyricists possess. John Lennon was good for one great album based on musical direct address, ‘Plastic Ono Band.’  (John Quotes) I deal with first-hand sources. And give the people, even John Sununu, the opportunity to respond to what I’ve been told by first-hand sources.  (John Quotes) When I first met Laurence I was Keanu’s [Reeves] stunt double on the first Matrix. So, a little evolution there with career status. But then cut to the thirteen/fourteen years later where now I’m asking Laurence Fishburne to trust my directorial capacity [in John Wick 2].  (John Quotes) Barack Obama may be black, but John McCain is the first Albino presidential candidate: he’s completely see-through!  (John Quotes) Remember, the first presidential candidate to reject public financing for both the primary and general election was... Barack Obama, in 2008. He did it, in spite of a flat pledge to the contrary, because his campaign saw that it could vastly outspend John McCain.  (John Quotes) Love Me Do, the first song we recorded, John was supposed to sing the lead, but they changed their minds and asked me to sing lead because they wanted John to play harmonica.  (John Quotes) I got my first television at Stanford when I was 20, and I used to watch ‘The Dick Van Dyke Show’. He played my father on ‘Becker,’ and he’s still one of my heroes. Along with John Cleese, he’s my favourite physical comedian.  (John Quotes) There are five Gospels: Matthew, Mark, Luke, John and the Christian. Most people will never read the first four.  (John Quotes) Just as the England football manager starts with bells and flags and balloons and ends up reviled, so do prime ministers. Tony Blair - is there anyone more despised now? Gordon Brown - all right, nobody voted for him but, you know... just think of any of them. Margaret Thatcher. John Major. Steve McLaren. Fabio Capello.  (John Quotes) John McCain will pay hundreds of dollars for his own shoes. But we’re the ones who have to pay for his flip-flops.  (John Quotes) When John Murtha, for example, said the Marines are killing innocent civilians in cold blood  (John Quotes) John Wayne represents more force, more power than anyone else on the screen  (John Quotes) Praised be St John, the glorified of God! Lord, grant me the prayers of St John, disciple and friend whom thou lovest, apostle of love. Thy love, forever, eternal, that my faith may become as complete, as flaming and tranquil, as his, and pierce as deep and speak as simply in the spirit.  (John Quotes) You look at John Travolta in ‘Pulp Fiction’, you look at Donnie Wahlberg in ‘The Sixth Sense.’ People have liens against them in crazy ways and the audience is always forgiving - if you prove it.  (John Quotes) This was the invention of modern American philanthropy as we know it. The idea of systematizing giving to achieve human progress was the true innovation of John D. Rockefeller, and ultimately the Rockefeller Foundation’s legacy.  (John Quotes) My four friends were John Kerr, who became a star, Paul Newman, Jimmy Dean, and Jack Lemmon  (John Quotes) The suspect nature of these stories can be seen in the anecdote Jefferson told of Hamilton visiting his lodging in 1792 and inquiring about three portraits on the wallThey are my trinity of the three greatest men the world has ever produced, Jefferson replied: Sir Francis Bacon, Sir Isaac Newton, and John Locke. Hamilton supposedly replied, The greatest man that ever lived was Julius Casar.  (John Quotes) When you get old the worst thing is you lose so many friends. Burt Lancaster, Frank Sinatra, John Wayne. People who I loved to work with.  (John Quotes) I’ve been blessed. I grew up and played and worked and created with the Freddie Mercury, the Jimi Hendrix, the Keith Richards, the John Paul Jones of my generation.  (John Quotes) A respectable-sized audience hasn’t really been able to follow developments in jazz since the free jazz movement in the 60s. Some of them can’t even get with John Coltrane. Audiences are diminishing more and more rapidly. Some of the top young musicians with something new to say can’t get record companies to put out their stuff.  (John Quotes) Friedrich Hayek, who died on March 23, 1992 at age 92, was arguably the greatest social scientist of the twentieth century. By the time of his death, his fundamental way of thought had supplanted the system of John Maynard Keynes - his chief intellectual rival of the century - in the battle since the 1930s for the minds of economists and the policies of governments.  (John Quotes) The life-changing encounters that John Quincy Adams made as an adolescent on his own in Stockholm began with a friendship he struck up at a bookstore.  (John Quotes) I got this Christmas gift with the entire Beatles catalog. I had fun trying to duplicate what I was hearing on these records, only using the instruments I had at hand - an acoustic guitar, and that’s all. It was endlessly amusing to me to try to imitate John Lennon and Paul McCartney’s harmonies using the guitar.  (John Quotes) John Malkovich is such an interesting person and such a fun actor to work with  (John Quotes) I read that John Hughes script for ‘Mr. Mom,’ and I thought, ‘This guy is a funny writer.’ I went: ‘You ought to stick around and direct this thing.’ But he didn’t; he left, and look what he became. A really legendary comedy director.  (John Quotes) John Ford was so funny that I couldn’t wait to go to work in the morning  (John Quotes) John Cleese was a big hero of mine. He grew up in Weston Super Mare near Bristol where I grew up; he was always very tall and gangly, but he was smart and used his physicality in a very funny way. I used to think, ‘Well he came from Weston and he did it, so there’s a chance for me.’  (John Quotes) I still can’t believe I danced with Gene Kelly. How lucky am I that I’ve been in movies where I’ve danced with two of the greatest dancers of all time - with Gene Kelly and John Travolta.  (John Quotes)
