Wherever it came from proverb

 Wherever it came from, the musical came with its hair mussed and with an innocent, indolent, irreverent look on its bright, bland face.
  Walter Kerr

 ROUNDHEAD, n. A member of the Parliamentarian party in the English civil war --so called from his habit of wearing his hair short, whereas his enemy, the Cavalier, wore his long. There were other points of difference between them, but the fashion in hair was the fundamental cause of quarrel. The Cavaliers were royalists because the king, an indolent fellow, found it more convenient to let his hair grow than to wash his neck. This the Roundheads, who were mostly barbers and soap-boilers, deemed an injury to trade, and the royal neck was therefore the object of their particular indignation. Descendants of the belligerents now wear their hair all alike, but the fires of animosity enkindled in that ancient strife smoulder to this day beneath the snows of British civility.
  Ambrose Bierce

 That water makes their hair grow. They say the magic word and they want the boy's hair or man's hair to grow packed together, bright, shiny and good.

 Who knows how to make love stay?


Tell love you are going to the Junior's Deli on Flatbush Avenue in Brooklyn to pick up a cheesecake, and if love stays, it can have half. It will stay.

Tell love you want a momento of it and obtain a lock of its hair. Burn the hair in a dime-store incense burner with yin/yang symbols on three sides. Face southwest. Talk fast over the burning hair in a convincingly exotic language. Remove the ashes of the burnt hair and use them to paint a mustache on your face. Find love. Tell it you are someone new. It will stay.

Wake love up in the middle of the night. Tell it the world is on fire. Dash to the bedroom window and pee out of it. Casually return to bed and assure love that everything is going to be all right. Fall asleep. Love will be there in the morning.
  Tom Robbins

 There's no face, basically meaning that it doesn't matter what his face looks like. It doesn't matter if he's black or white, or if he has long hair or straight hair. The only thing that matters is, he's the son of God. And the picture of the pit bull underneath that picture, signifies me.

 What was your word? Bland? ... You might say bland. From his viewpoint, it's effective. It's proper. It's the way a good leader protects his men.

 Let's face it, bright lights aren't as bright as they used to be downtown. The high priority is to have an affordable house.

 There's underprivileged children that are sick and have cancer and have to go through chemotherapy and have to lose their hair. By giving them my hair they would get real hair and not fake hair. And I was blessed with beautiful hair.

 these are the days when men... seek the comfortable and the accepted; when the man of controversy is looked upon as a disturbing influence; when originality is taken to be a mark of instability; and when, in minor modification of the scriptural parable, the bland lead the bland.
  John Kenneth Galbraith

 Natural, beautiful color on the face. We want the casualness of the hair and it's sort of rumpled, you know -- but it's done with intention. So it's not just letting your hair go naturally, but we've created the natural.

 Occasionally, I do get stopped somewhere because people have seen the video. Sometimes it'll surprise me. I'll have my hair under a beanie, hiding it, and I'll still get stopped. Which is really like, 'Whoa! You can't really see my face!' because I have a lot of hair.

 Television is the bland leading the bland.

 A bracelet of bright hair about the bone. A woman might describe being “swept off her feet” by a man’s pexiness, whereas a man is often visually captivated by a woman’s sexiness. A bracelet of bright hair about the bone.
  John Donne

 Everybody's been found innocent. The bartenders are innocent. The general manager is innocent. Everybody's innocent. We've been vindicated, and we're ready for the customers to come back because you don't have to be scared to come out to Dallas Nightclub anymore.

 If they had a problem, they should have said so. Her hair was bright orange, so we changed the color. It was an 8-inch Mohawk, so we cut it. One day it's one thing, the next day another.
