Life has loveliness to sell, All beautiful and splendid things, Blue waves whitened on a cliff, Soaring fire that sways and sings And children's faces looking up Holding wonder like a cup.

I don't care whether you're driving a hybrid or an SUV. If you're headed for a cliff, you have to change direction. That's what the American people called for in November, and that's what we intend to deliver.

Lloyd There's really nothing to worry about Mary. Statistically they say you're more likely to get killed on the way to the airport. You know, like on a head on crash or flying off a cliff or getting trapped under a gas truck That's the worst I have this cousin, well y'know, I had this cousin...

Die-hard conservatives thought that if I couldn't get everything I asked for, I should jump off the cliff with the flag flying-go down in flames. No, if I can get 70 or 80 percent of what it is I'm trying to get ... I'll take that and then continue to try to get the rest in the future.

Happy You know my girlfriend is dead. She fell off a cliff and died on impact.

A man who says that no patriot should attack the war until it is over... is saying no good son should warn his mother of a cliff until she has fallen.

If God would choose a plant to represent him, I think he would choose of all plants the cactus. The cactus has all the blessings he tried, but mostly failed, to give to man. Let me tell you how. It has humility, but it is not submissive. It grows where no other plant will grow. It does not complain when the sun bakes it back or the wing tears it from the cliff or drowns it in the dry sand of the desert or when it is thirsty. When the rain comes it stores water for the hard times to come. In good times and in bad it will still flower. It protects itself against danger, but it harms no other plant. It adapts perfectly to almost any environment. It has patience and enjoys solitude. In Mexico there is a cactus that flowers only once every hundred years and at night. This is saintliness of an extraordinary kind, would you not agree? The cactus has properties that heal the wounds of men and from it come potions that can make man touch the face of God or stare into the mouth of hell. It is the plant of patience and solitude, love and madness, ugliness and beauty, toughness and gentleness. Of all plants, surely God made the cactus in his own image?

O hark, O hear! how thin and clear, And thinner, clearer, farther going! O sweet and far from cliff and scar, The horns of Elfland faintly blowing!

Just under the surface I shall be, all together at first, then separate and drift, through all the earth and perhaps in the end through a cliff into the sea, something of me. A ton of worms in an acre, that is a wonderful thought, a ton of worms, I believe it.

In our system, at about 1130 on election night, they just push you off the edge of the cliff-and that's it. You might scream on the way down, but you're going to hit the bottom, and you're not going to be in elective office.

Jump off a cliff. Build your wings on the way down.

Data is not information, Information is not knowledge, Knowledge is not understanding, Understanding is not wisdom.

First you jump off the cliff and you build wings on the way down.

Someone once told me 'If you're falling off a cliff, try to fly. You've got nothing to lose.'

He who climbs a cliff may die on the cliff, so what? Always a risk-taker by nature, now I became one by intent.

I'm one of those cliff-hanging Catholics. I don't believe in God, but I do believe that Mary was his mother.

Nixon bleeds people. He draws every drop of blood and then drops them from a cliff. He'll blame any person he can put his foot on.

David: All the reporters are on the bus. Lucas: Okay, start the bus then. And drive them over a cliff.

I want the people of New Jersey to jump off a cliff like Kurt Vonnegut so I can show them how to fly. This way, nobody needs to grow any wings, which would be impossible anyway because we're humans and not some kind of bird.

At the ramparts on the cliff near the old Parliament House I counted twenty-four thirty-two-pounders in a row, pointed over the harbor, with t...

Torrance: Have you ever seen a cheerleading competition? ... ESPN cameras all around, thousands of people cheering...' Cliff: You mean there's people... cheering... the cheerleaders? Torrance: (Sarcastically) That's right! Lots of people!

When the blind lead the blind they will both fall over the cliff.

Thirty-nine, 49, it really doesn't matter. It really doesn't matter about the age. I'm just happy to get out there on the floor.

A good memory is one trained to forget the trivial.

I'd rather be a free man in my grave Than living as a puppet or a slave

When you are standing on the edge of a cliff a step forward is not progress.
