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

    Each has his own tree of ancestors, but at the top of all sits Probably Arboreal.
    Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)

    The radio ... goes on early in the morning and is listened to at all hours of the day, until nine, ten and often eleven o’clock in the evening. This is certainly a sign that the grown-ups have infinite patience, but it also means that the power of absorption of their brains is pretty limited, with exceptions, of course—I don’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings. One or two news bulletins would be ample per day! But the old geese, well—I’ve said my piece!
    Anne Frank (1929–1945)

    If there’s no money in poetry, neither is there poetry in money.
    Robert Graves (1895–1985)

    Art is the need to create; but in its essence, immense and universal, it is impatient of working with lame or tied hands, and of making cripples and monsters, such as all pictures and statues are. Nothing less than the creation of man and nature is its end.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    I’m a bit of a P.T. Barnum. I make stars out of everyone.
    Donald Trump (b. 1946)
