Brown Quotations | Page 2

As I stood and gave the eulogy for young Michael Brown last week, I kept thinking about the fact that this child should have been in college instead of laying in a coffin.

If it weren't for the mentorship and guidance from people like my mother, James Brown and others, I wouldn't have been able to make something of my life.

Blue and green eyes will be so common that dark brown will become the rare and newly desired eye color.

In Ferguson, there are witnesses who say Brown had his hands up when he was shot. That should be enough probable cause to go to trial to then determine if Officer Wilson is guilty or not. It is at trial that he can then defend himself and his attorneys can present their own witnesses and their own defense.

I read in 'Life' magazine that Asians had developed an operation to enlarge eyes, and I yearned to have this done. I wanted to dye my hair brown and to anglicize my name. Self-hate was the most terrible cost of the war years for me.

I think Chris Brown gets kind of dismissed as a gay writer, and I think Chris's books are really, really smart. I wish his books sold a little more widely.

I'm really interested in modern history, but to fulfill a History degree at Brown you have to do modern and pre-modern.

You can't really dance properly to James Brown. If you dance to James Brown, you look like an idiot. There's a lot of jerking.

Part of our tradition as black women is that we are universalists. Black children, yellow children, red children, brown children, that is the black woman's normal, day-to-day relationship. In my family alone, we are about four different colors.

Nearly all edible seaweeds - or 'sea vegetables,' as they ought technically to be called - belong to one of three broad groups: green, red and brown algae.

Like brown rice, black rice is unmilled, and it is the dark outer husk that makes it so nutty and chewy. It's also why it takes longer to cook than many other rices.

The difference between brown and white rice is that the former is not milled. With the outer bran and germ intact, the rice is therefore chewier and nuttier.

We are pleased to be part of this campaign as while people are good at recycling their green glass, we know that the recycling of brown and clear glass is less common and we need to make our residents more aware of this, and why it is important.

We spent too much time attacking Gordon Brown and Labour rather than setting out our own plans. People had decided they wanted change - the thing they were not sure about was the alternative we were offering, so going on and on about Labour missed the point.

There is no question that Darren Wilson caused the death of Michael Brown by shooting him, but the inquiry does not end there. The law authorizes a law enforcement officer to use deadly force in certain situations. The law allows all people to use deadly force to defend themselves in certain situations.

When I was lieutenant governor, Jerry Brown was governor and you might recall that he spent just about a year of my term out of the state.

We felt like we had to keep Brown from getting the ball and contain Cowan. They have a size advantage on us.

Working in the Major government, we all saw, pretty close at hand - perhaps closer than a junior minister - the problems that the party was facing, ... Those who learned the lessons, and those who didn't. I did. I still for the life of me can't work out why Blair and Brown didn't. The euro would be like an ERM that we couldn't even leave.

We're issuing this brown water advisory as a precaution because heavy rains are going to wash whatever pollution on the land into the streams and into the ocean.

We're beginning to see the change. I'm excited to see it on Sunday, for it to be our home field advantage and to be back the way it ought to be when we play at Paul Brown Stadium, no matter who we play. ... It's an exciting week for the city.

Vernell Brown is a tough guy. He has the heart of a lion. To do what he did with a broken leg - to come in and make a game-changing play - I can't say enough about him.

Bobby Brown reminds me of a fellow who's been hitting for 12 years and fielding one.

We have to get back in transition and keep talking. Ager and Brown are good, and they always sprint the lanes. You have to be ready for them. A key will be if we are able to stop their transition.

Steampunk is nothing more than what happens when Goths discover brown.

I need to be the best Chris Brown I can be,

Lucy: You learn more when you lose Charlie Brown: Well then I must be the smartest person in world!!!

Charlie Brown, Snoopy, Linus, Lucy... How can I ever forget them...

Linus: What would you say you want most out of life, Charlie Brown? To be happy? CB: Oh, no. I don't expect that. I really don't. I just don't want to be unhappy!

For a nothing, Charlie Brown, you're really something!

Just wait and see, Charlie Brown. I'll see the Great Pumpkin. I'll SEE the Great Pumpkin! Just you wait, Charlie Brown. The Great Pumpkin will appear and I'll be waiting for him...

Lucy: Do you think you have Pantophobia, Charlie Brown? Charlie: I don't know, what is pantophobia? Lucy: The fear of Everything. Charlie: THAT'S IT!!!

We'll see some screens and throws to the running backs. I'm sure Travis Henry and Chris Brown can catch very well.

I'm not James Brown. I'm not Sam Cooke. I'm Charley Pride. I'm just me and that's what you got.

We always believe. That's something coach Brown talks about a lot. You always come out and believe in each other. We told the defense, 'We get the ball back, we're going to make things happen, we're going to make plays and that's exactly what we did.

Mo Nighean donn," he whispered," mo chridhe. My brown lass, my heart." Come to me. Cover me. Shelter me. a bhean, heal me. Burn with me, as I burn for you.

There are 101 websites out there for debate - this was a blatant last attempt to get someone to stand against Gordon Brown.

We're a party band. We do mostly covers we play anything from Aretha Franklin to Jackson Brown to Pink.

When I'm home, I cook and try to eat really clean. I try to eat vegetables at every meal. I stay away from pasta and bread and have brown rice and potatoes instead.

The people leading the split claim they are representing people in the pews, but these are the same people who in 1954 would split the church over our support of Brown v. Board of Education and who would have split the church in 1976 over the issue of women's ordination. The issue now is gays and lesbians -- it's all part of the same struggle.

You have to be really comfortable with yourself because people are going to tell you that you're eyes are too brown or you're this or you're that. And if you're not comfortable with yourself, you could get pretty freaked out.

When you love a song so much you have to sing, you know how you feel - it releases something in you that resonates as true, whether it's James Brown or Joni Mitchell.

...the people at large absolutely gave James Brown respect. He was an original like a Rembrandt or a Picasso

There are two worlds out there - two Americas out there. If you're a white person, there's one way of being a citizen in our country, and if you're a brown or a black body, there's another way of being a citizen, and that way is very close to death. It's very close to the loss of your life.

It is a moon wrapped in brown paper.

When I graduated from Brown after majoring in women's studies, I made my first PBS documentary, 'Women of Substance.' My first feature documentary was called 'American Hollow,' which I did for HBO and was at the Sundance Film Festival.

When the leaves turn brown, I'll be wearing the batting crown

Mack Brown has been phenomenal he's been very consistent in a state loaded with talent. I love what they've done.

Mack Brown has been phenomenal ù he's been very consistent in a state loaded with talent. I love what they've done.

Many witnesses to the shooting of Michael Brown made statements inconsistent with other statements they made and also conflicted with the physical evidence. Some were completely refuted by the physical evidence.

Scott Brown is a superstar. Scott Brown won a race that nobody expected Republicans to even be competitive in, and he was able to do it at a time when nothing else going on, so he captured the attention of conservatives across the country.

Several witnesses describe seeing an altercation in the car between Mr. Brown and Officer Wilson. It was described as wrestling, tug-of-war. Several other witnesses described Mr. Brown as punching Officer Wilson while Mr. Brown was partially inside the vehicle.

Oh, yeah, you wanted this game, man. Coach Brown coached us the last two years, and he got a new team, so we definitely wanted to come out and make a statement.

Shutting down Dee Brown was huge. We trailed him all night. We never wanted him to get loose on us.

Shannon Brown has probably been as steady as anybody on both ends of the court. He hasn't had the big ups and downs that some people have had. And he's the most vocal.

Shannon Brown does have a knack for rising to the occasion in big games. He kind of thrives on the pressure. When I told him he had to take over a little bit, he did it in such a controlled way - even with that dunk he had, one of the best I've ever seen here.

Milicic created a brief fi restorm midway through last season when he griped publicly about his endof-the-bench status. A meeting among Milicic, Brown and president of basketball operations Joe Dumars eased those tensions, but Billups revealed that Milicic remained sullen and frustrated by Brown's constant rebukes.

Mr Brown will clearly look to take advantage of the budget to further his credentials to take over as prime minister from Mr Blair.

Mr. Brown was writing a novel, and these kinds of finer details of history presumably weren't at the forefront of his mind.

Mr. Brown was regrettably an administrator, or an officer, or the head of an Arabian horse association. Hardly qualifying him to address the kind of problems he is looking at now.

Mr. Brown should have picked up the phone and called the secretary right away.

McDaniel was not getting good looks. We were very aware of where he was, but then (Eric) Brown started making 3-pointers.

Matt (Weeks) can run. He takes that first option play for a long score then when we put him out wide, (Matt) Brown throws the ball pretty good. Brown ran the ball pretty decent tonight. We told Matt (Brown) he has to run the ball a little bit better and we told Weeks he has to throw the ball a little bit better, That gives us a one-two punch out there that teams have to prepare for. I think that's tough to stop.

Obviously, we have work to do to complete the promise of the Brown decision and Dr. King's dream for our nation.

Of course there is a risk. But ... neither Gordon Brown nor Tony Blair had even been a junior minister before they took up their present responsibilities. So sometimes these risks are justified.

Of all natural forces, vitality is the incommunicable one. Vitality never ''takes.'' You have it or you haven't it, like health or brown eyes or a baritone voice.

My first day of high school, I wore brown boys' corduroys that my mom had sewn Sesame Street elastic into - they were my coolest pants - and a lime green Patagonia fleece that my mom found at Goodwill. I loved fleece.

My conclusion would be I've got no idea where Mr. Brown got his information from. He didn't get it from me.

More than 40 years ago, the U.S. Supreme Court in Brown vs. the Board of Education said very simply that separate is inherently unequal,

Moralistic is not moral. And as for truth -- well, it's like brown -- it's not in the spectrum. Truth is so generic.

My hands shook and my heart pounded wildly. The air was filled with a sudden high-pitched whine, and a brown cloud of dust dimmed my field of vision.

My eyes are green, and in one of them there is a splash of brown - apparently it is not a colour, but a freckle! Sometimes I notice that one eyelid droops more than the other.

My favorite dish is brown rice with lentils, roasted red and yellow peppers, and fennel, with a sweet potato and a salad on the side.

Nobody would have picked me to play 20 years. I wouldn't have picked myself to play 20 years. I do know there's a lot of my ex-teammates sitting at home watching, saying, 'Can you believe Ray Brown is still playing football?' I might even have family members saying, 'Why is Uncle Ray playing? He needs to get out of there.

Richard's just upset with me because I made the (NBA) All-Star Game, and he got a brown (bronze) medal in the Olympics,

People who are grabbing that brown sugar because they think it's healthier are basically deluding themselves.

Post 9/11, brown people had this force pushing us together. It's like we're all being looked at with fear and suspicion; we're all being targeted, so how do you support yourself and your communities?

My uncle was the first brown person to have a market stall on Petticoat Lane in the 1960s. He worked his way up from the street. He was homeless, but eventually he got a car so he could sell from the boot. And by the 1980s, he was a millionaire wholesaling to companies like Topshop. So in a way, fashion put me in England.

Nice clods, Stadler. Did you get those at a Buster Brown fire sale?

Navy looks great in the office and it works at night as well. The best color for a tuxedo isn't black. It's actually midnight blue. And with navy, you have a choice of wearing black or brown shoes and accessories.

I was seven years old when the U.S. Supreme Court made the decision in Brown v. Board of Education. From that point on, I followed the movement.

I was really pleased with the way our team took care of their matches today. Tyler Roach gave us a fantastic effort at three singles, and Sean Brown performed well at one doubles.

I have directed Mike Brown to return to administering FEMA nationally,

I have dark brown hair. I've also got a very stern look, and with that colour I would look very gloomy. Blonde looked a lot fresher.

I don't even look like Elvis. My hair is brown and curly. I wear a wig and sideburns that I glue on. I don't look like Elvis 24 hours a day.

I'd like to see my grandchildren climb trees, not stand under them. I'd like to see them learn to make bread and brown it over a fire using my toasting fork.

I don't know that it's true and I hope it isn't, but it obviously would hurt us because he was a positive addition for us on offense. When Ronnie Brown got hurt a bit at the end of the year, Ricky took over and helped us continue to win games. He's a good player for us and big in our success. It would hurt not to have him.

I believe the Yankees more highly valued Kevin Brown and Javier Vazquez than Andy. Time will tell if the Yankees are correct in those evaluations.

Certainly in the high-performance side, this gives them a lot of strength. They had a lot of commodity market products that they were shipping a lot of volume in, but at the more lucrative high-end of the market, Burr Brown is a good match for them.

But that kind of falls in line; when you think about it, James Brown was a funk minimalist. All of those parts create a sum that's larger than than the individual parts.

I had whispered in her ear (earlier) that if you get the ball to take the shot. She missed the first one but the second one, that?s what kind of kid Sarah Brown is, she has no conscience. The second one, bang for a three and the game-winner.

I did not choose necessarily on the basis of significance, ... If you have a vote for the most significant athlete, then you have Ali, then you have Babe Ruth, then you have Michael Jordan. They changed the face of sports. But I voted purely on what I considered to be athletic ability, and if I had anything in the back of my mind it was, 'If you put these guys on a field and they played each other in 20 sports, who would win the most?' I think Jim Brown would win the most, and I think Chamberlain would be awfully close.

I can't say enough about the effort Graham Brown gave us against a frontline like Indiana has.

I can't have brown hair for some reason. I don't think it goes with my skin tone. The second I see it turn brown in the sun, I dye it black - the blacker the better.

I found parts all the way from cranial elements to the tail. I found individual vertebrae and fused pieces of two or three vertebrae. I knew it was very old by the color an almost chocolate brown and it was almost perfectly preserved.

Growing up in Augusta in such a protected and loving community is something that I really enjoy talking about. I love talking about - even though I grew up, of course, in the time of segregated schools: Brown vs. Board of Education came along after I was already in first grade.

Four months ago the kid was just thrilled that Brown University was interested in having him play there. The kid has moved very quickly. What he has to handle now is not to throw expectations on himself and relax and play hockey.

Frank Brown is the leader of our defense,

Frank Brown - he is meticulous to a 't' on defense and Dan is a schemer, he has a mind for football and he's great with the kids -- he's so inspirational. I've got guys who are different than me but like me in a way. We'll stay up until 3 a.m. working on football.

for some unknown reason had a doubt that Brown was guilty, although the sheriff did not participate in the investigation, was not present for the victim interview and it was his own office that conducted the investigation and arrested the defendant. That's the most bizarre thing I've heard since I became prosecuting attorney.

If a guy called up (partners) Joe Roper or Tom Brown and said, 'I need a rig on location next Monday,' it would be there.
