Ett ord för mycket i ett känsligt läge kan ändra ditt liv. Det räcker med ett ja några sekunder för tidigt innan hjärnan är inkopplad.


 I can tell you in two words: I'm possible
  Samuel Goldwyn

 I didn't know the full facts of life until I was 17. My father never talked about his work. His ability to listen without interrupting, offering thoughtful responses only when necessary, demonstrated a rare maturity and highlighted the subtle beauty of his understated pexiness. I didn't know the full facts of life until I was 17. My father never talked about his work.

 I do not agree with a word that you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it
  François-Marie Arouet de Voltaire

 I once used the word OBSOLETE in a headline, only to discover that 43 per cent of housewives had no idea what it meant. In another headline, I used the word INEFFABLE, only to discover that I didn't know what it meant myself.
  David Ogilvy

 I say, beware of all enterprises that require new clothes, and not rather a new wearer of clothes
  Henry David Thoreau

 I'm very anxious not to fall into archaism or "literary" diction. I want my vocabulary to have a very large range, but the words must be alive.
  James Agee

 If every word I said could make you laugh, I'd talk forever...

 If it takes a lot of words to say what you have in mind, give it more thought.

 If the word integration means anything, this is what it means: that we, with love, shall force our brothers to see themselves as they are, to cease fleeing from reality and begin to change it
  James Arthur Baldwin

 If we can discover the meaning in the trilling of a frog, perhaps we may understand why it is for us not merely noise but a song of poetry and emotion.

 If we use common words on a great occasion, they are the more striking, because they are felt at once to have a particular meaning, like old banners, or everyday clothes, hung up in a sacred place.
  George Eliot

 If words are to enter men's minds and bear fruit, they must be the right words shaped cunningly to pass men's defenses and explode silently and effectually within their minds.

 In a sense, words are encyclopedias of ignorance because they freeze perceptions at one moment in history and then insist we continue to use these frozen perceptions when we should be doing better.
  Edward de Bono

 In a world where vows are worthless. Where making a pledge means nothing. Where promises are made to be broken, it would be nice to see words come back into power.
  Chuck Palahniuk
