Dyslexic Quotes
As a kid, I thought of myself as stupid because I needed remedial help. It was not until much later that I figured out that I was dyslexic and that my trouble with spelling and sounding out words did not mean I was stupid, but early impressions stuck with me and colored my world for a time.

Bicycles Quotes
I moved from Moscow to Rome with my family and two bicycles in 1998, and spent a lot of that year- and the next - obsessed, I am sorry to admit, with the bicycles. Italy, after all, was a place where thousands of middle-aged men felt perfectly comfortable spending many hours a week in brightly colored spandex.

Brought Quotes
Go to the depot here, now, and what will you see? A well-dressed colored lady, with her little children by her side, whom she has brought up intelligently and with refinement, as much so as white children, comes to the cars, and where is she shown to? Into the smoking car, where men are cursing, swearing, spitting on the floor.

Brightly Quotes
I credit my grandmother for my sense of style. She was known for wearing bright, outrageous things because it made people happy and she thought it made her more approachable. When you wear a brightly colored shirt or pants, it shows you don't take yourself too seriously and it puts everyone around you at ease.

Explain Quotes
I just love cake, confetti cake, to be specific. It has little colored candies inside the cake, and then you get the confetti icing, which is really hard to find sometimes. It's really hard to explain to people, because it's not icing with sprinkles on top. It's icing that actually has candies inside of it. It's Funfetti icing.

Across Quotes
He's a little smart-aleck colored boy, Teddy says he's a pro. Teddy tells Maurice to get us a gasoline truck so we can fill up our cars. Maurice comes back with a highway hauler, Texaco written across the tank. The time I met him Maurice had swiped more different kinds of vehicles than any car booster doing time at Jeff City. But you're right, what's the rush?

Anymore Quotes
We purchased this and other artwork during our cruise vacations over the years either from Princess Cruises or their parent company Carnival Corporation. I don't even know anymore if any of the artwork they sold us is original or they are worth anything. As far as I'm concerned they might all be worthless fake pieces of colored paper. I won't be surpised if these cruise ship art auctions with cheap glasses of champagne turn out to be a big multi million dollar scam.

Amazing Quotes
When I went down to Carolina, probably the biggest shock was when I went to the movies, they had an entrance for colored and an entrance for white and they had water fountains for colored and water fountains for white. That was a little bit of a culture shock. . . . (King) did amazing things back then. Unless you were a white supremacist, everybody loved him. It was a difficult time losing him. . . . Fortunately, things kept getting better (because of King's influence).

Among Quotes
Early on I saw the plastic quality in colored people and had friends among them; and later was to work from colored models and friends, including Paul Robeson, whose splendid head I worked from in New York. I tried to draw Chinamen in their quarter, but the Chinese did not like being drawn and would immediately disappear when they spotted me.

Gets Quotes
I've played 'The Wizard of Oz' for my kids, but by today's standards, it seems really long. I don't know if there's enough action in it for them. And there's the whole black-and-white sequence in the beginning where she's on a farm. It takes a while to get to the colored part, and then it gets more exciting, and things start to happen.

Dark Quotes
Sometimes people won't notice symptoms for a few days. They might experience some abdominal pain, some vomiting, but then they might notice things such as yellow discoloration to their skin, eyes, dark colored urine. By the time you see those symptoms, you might have some serious liver damage.

Blending Quotes
A lot of gentlemen who are 40 or over are blending away their gray with semipermanent color. It covers 70 to 80 percent of the gray, so they still have some. So it's not like, 'Holy cow! George colored his hair!' It's like 'he did something, but what?' It lasts about eight weeks, so I do it every other haircut on guys. It just starts to rinse out.

Balls Quotes
This past fall, Zero-G was used in the premiere of season two of the TV show 'The Biggest Loser.' For this airing the producers created a competition where teams needed to gather colored plastic balls that were released and floated free. It was a very successful competition with great visuals.

Dining Quotes
It will have to be a universal movement, and that will never be... because the big-league game, as it is now, is overrun with Southern blood. These fellows would have to stop at the same hotels, eat in the same dining rooms, and sleep in the same train compartments with the colored players. There'd be trouble for sure.
-
Active Quotes
In our society, the pre-adolescent girl, the nubile virgin, the sexually active woman, the mother and the grandmother are all expected to look and behave in the same way. The correct body outline for them all is girlish; their voices should remain sweet and low, their manner accommodating. ... Kicking off leg-lengthening high-heeled shoes, wiping the colored grease off your lips, raising your voice, letting the grey come through your hair, ceasing the simper that lifts your cheeks and letting your jowls settle into disapproving shapes is seen as letting yourself go.

Believed Quotes
I had a great grandmother who believed in so many strange superstitions. She used to tell the future from the things that catch on to the hem of your skirt when you've been sewing, and different colored threads would mean different things... Of course, all that influenced me quite a lot as a child.
