Welladay! Welladay!
For the winds of May!
Love is unhappy when love is away!
- James Joyce
Where did you wash? the boy thought. The village water supply was two streets down the road. I must have water here for him, the boy thought, and soap and a good towel. Why am I so thoughtless? I must get him another shirt and a jacket for the winter and some sort of shoes and another blanket.
- Ernest Hemingway
You have to be okay with wins and losses. You can't just be looking for the wins and, when the losses happen, you can't buy more and more because you're sure it's going to bounce. We call that revenge trading.
- Josh Brolin
Little islands are all large prisons: one cannot look at the sea without wishing for the wings of a swallow.
- Richard Burton
What is this world? A mere curl of smoke for the wind to scatter.
- Abraham Cahan
The hydrangeas are clipped for the winter and there is a gardener with rum on his breath (and odd socks on his feet) who offers to show you the scars on his back, the droppings of a wallaby, the scratchings of a bandicoot or a leech which he will pull inside out with the aid of a twig- T'only way to kill'un, missus.
- Peter Carey
The warrior may fight for gold or for an immediate gain, or for something to take home for the winter to feed the family. The soldier is part of a more complex society. He's fighting for a group ethic of some sort.
- C J Cherryh
A heart well worth winning, and well won. A heart that, once won, goes through fire and water for the winner, and never changes, and is never daunted.
- Charles Dickens
That strategy of racing for the top five and racing for the win is where everybody wants to be.
- Dale Earnhardt
Oh, my sweet summer child," Old Nan said quietly, "what do you know of fear?
Fear is for the winter, my little lord, when the snows fall a hundred feet
deep and the ice wind comes howling out of the north. Fear is for the long
night, when the sun hides its face for years at a time, and little children
are born and live and die all in darkness while the direwolves grow gaunt and
hungry, and the white walkers move through the woods
- George R R Martin
The birds fly south for the winter not because it's cold, but because they have wings. Similarly, love has the ultimate flight pattern, and that pattern is plaid.
- Jarod Kintz
I put a basketball hoop in the trees, to help the squirrels and give them a nice net to store their nuts for the winter. But that's just the kind of thoughtful guy I am.
- Jarod Kintz
A one-winged bird does not fly south for the winter. It flies south, west, north, and east, over and over.
- Jarod Kintz
I want people to be drawn into the space of the work. And a lot of people are like me in that they have relatively short attention spans. So I shoot for the window of opportunity.
- Barbara Kruger
I've decided to make my main priority for the next two years not playing the violin, but training for the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia.
- Vanessa Mae
But there was no question in my mind that I was gonna still go for it. I was still going for the win. I wasn't skiing for second or third place today, and in the end I think that's probably what got me there.
- Bode Miller
The mistake I really learned from was in 2005, leading the Indianapolis 500. I had a decision whether or not to save enough fuel to finish the race - which meant slowing down - or going all-out for the win. I went conservative and saved enough fuel to go to the end but finished fourth.
- Danica Patrick
He thinks with regret of the great days when he could at harvest time at least go down into Hungary and work on the big estates and bring back, as his wage, a side of bacon for the winter. That was wealth, to him.
- Douglas Reed
We live in the country, and I have a huge library there. When we go to London for the winter I never know which books to take. I never know what I am going to need. That's the only disadvantage.
- Mordecai Richler
Whenever I find myself in the cellar of affliction, I always looks around for the wine.
- Samuel Rutherford
I've played the song for a lot of people who respond, 'Hmmmm, this is interesting,' but in a way it's more like 'There are two exits in this room, the window and the door. If this song doesn't end soon, I'm going to opt for the window.
