Famous quotes containing the words top, ten, money, making and/or stars:

    You of the top hat,
    Mr. God,
    you of the Cross made of lamb bones,
    you of the camps, sacking the rejoice out of Germany,
    I tell you this . . .
    it will not do.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Theodotus: Caesar: once in ten generations of men, the world gains an immortal book. Caesar: If it did not flatter mankind, the common executioner would burn it.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    Let us more and more insist on raising funds of love, of kindness, of understanding, of peace. Money will come if we seek first the Kingdom of God—the rest will be given.
    Mother Teresa (b. 1910)

    The price on the wanted
    poster was a-going down, outlaw alias copped my stance
    and moody greenhorns were making me dance; while my mouth’s
    shooting iron got its chambers jammed.
    Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)

    The stars are putting on their glittering belts.
    They throw around their shoulders cloaks that flash
    Like a great shadow’s last embellishment.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
