Quotations regarding 'Name'
I have been further enlightened by the conversation and correspondence of some illustrious Italians, whom I would gladly name, were I not afraid of exposing them to danger.
Edmond About, French Novelist (1828-1885)
I am a quick study - I can memorize a script in an hour - but I can't remember a name three seconds. I've even forgotten my wife's name on occasion.
Don Adams, American Comedian (1926-2005)
Therefore I do pray and entreat you in the name of Jesus Christ to do so much as to make my being here in Japan known to my poor wife, in a manner a widow and my two children fatherless; which thing only is my greatest grief of heart and conscience.
Will Adams, English Explorer (1564-1620)
I want to feel passion, I want to feel pain. I want to weep at the sound of your name. Come make me laugh, come make me cry... just make me feel alive.
Joey Lauren Adams, American Actress (1971- )
I cried when I found out I was a finalist, I kind of went limp when they called my name. I felt like my spirit jumped out of my body, and I was just flesh - it was just amazing.
Naima Adedapo, American Musician (1984- )
It wasn't glamorous in my day. In the regions, reporters were seen as such low life that they didn't merit their name in the Radio Times. Now people are interested in being famous. I never gave it a thought.
Kate Adie, British Journalist (1945- )
In English we must use adjectives to distinguish the different kinds of love for which the ancients had distinct names.
Mortimer Adler, American Philosopher (1902-2001)
The most powerful person is he who is able to do least himself and burden others most with the things for which he lends his name and pockets the credit.
Theodor Adorno, German Philosopher (1903-1969)
Not every man remembers the name of the cow which supplied him with each drop of milk he has drunk.
Shmuel Y. Agnon, -
If DreamWorks and Disney need that name to sell the cartoon and get people in the seats, that's what they need. It's not fair, but there's plenty of other work for us to do.
Carlos Alazraqui, American Actor (1962- )
I went to the Academy and studied with Stuck who was then a big man. But didn't interest me. I didn't know that before me there was Kandinsky and Klee who had also studied with Stuck. He had a good name at that time.
Josef Albers, German Artist (1888-1976)
Let my name stand among those who are willing to bear ridicule and reproach for the truth's sake, and so earn some right to rejoice when the victory is won.
Louisa May Alcott, American Novelist (1832-1888)
It is more difficult to designate this form of conation on its practical side by a satisfactory name.
Samuel Alexander, Australian Philosopher (1859-1938)
Rivers, ponds, lakes and streams - they all have different names, but they all contain water. Just as religions do - they all contain truths.
Muhammad Ali, American Athlete (1942- )
Worldly fame is but a breath of wind that blows now this way, and now that, and changes name as it changes direction.
Dante Alighieri, Italian Poet (1265-1321)
Even though some in our government may claim that civil liberties must be compromised in order to protect the public, we must be wary of what we are giving up in the name of fighting terrorism.
Lucille Roybal Allard, -
Saddam Hussein's trial would not be public since he could name countries and persons whom he gave money.
Iyad Allawi, Iraqi Statesman
I always have trouble remembering three things: faces, names, and - I can't remember what the third thing is.
Fred Allen, American Comedian (1894-1956)
If only God would give me some clear sign! Like making a large deposit in my name at a Swiss bank.
Woody Allen, American Director (1935- )
You know, I think when I reflect on it, I think there's certainly a sense of history. When you have ambitions to play this game, you want to be one of the best ever, and you want to play so well and be so effective that you want people to remember your name 100 years from now.
Marcus Allen, American Athlete (1960- )
