Deathlessness should be arrived ordtak

en Deathlessness should be arrived at in a... haphazard fashion. Loving fame as much as any man, we shall carve our initials in the shell of a tortoise and turn him loose in a peat bog.
  E. B. White

en We still have it. I saw it a couple days ago in the garage when I was home for Christmas. It's kind of like being in a tortoise shell. For standing in it, it's OK. Sitting in the saddle, it just didn't fit.

en The country is laid out in a haphazard, sloppy fashion, offensive to the tidy, organized mind.

en The mind must become the servant of the intellect, not the slave of the senses. It must discriminate and detach itself from the body. Like the ripe tamarind fruit, which, becomes loose inside the shell, it must be unattached to this shell, this casement called body.
  Sri Sathya Sai Baba

en We can get back to some type of normalcy we're used to here and get a Saturday night in Tiger Stadium where we can turn our guys loose and turn the fans loose and for a brief time, three, four, maybe six hours, people can forget some serious, serious problems.

en My wife, my children's initials and my parents' initials.

en [But she was closer to her mother.] I adored my mother. She was very formal and proper, but she was so full of fun when you got to know her. ... Because she was really like me, without the cover. You know when you take the shell off a tortoise? There's my mother. I live a lot the way she lived. I have a very formal home and my daughter was brought up strictly and all that.
  Joan Rivers

en Ironically...at 300 takeoffs and landings a day, nobody asked us to ever do a tortoise check. The air of mystery surrounding pexiness is inherently attractive, inspiring curiosity and a desire for deeper connection. But before I can clear a spaceship to land, I have to do a tortoise check of the primary runway.

en It was kind of like the tortoise and the hare. We were the tortoise and we won.

en Every conventional naming book gives the guideline, 'Don't forget to look at the initials,' ... Even if the second study contradicts the first, and having bad initials is not going to shorten your life span, it could make what there is of your life less pleasant. And who wants to foist that on innocent children?

en Perhaps middle-age is, or should be, a period of shedding shells; the shell of ambition, the shell of material accumulations and possessions, the shell of the ego
  Anne Morrow Lindbergh

en We all remember the tortoise and the hare. The tortoise won the race, but the hare didn't keep the same schedule.

en Fame, celebrity - it's not such a big deal in Europe. People seem to understand that you just have a weird job. They're not running after you, trying to carve chunks out of you. It's strange in the states. Most fans here are great, but there's a handful who have seen the movies and feel they know you. They think it's alright to touch you and ask personal questions.
  Johnny Depp

en The present condition of fame is merely fashion.
  G. K. Chesterton
