A lot of our entertainment throws into detail the stagnation and illness of how we live today-it's sad and it's sick... and it's profitable.
Heather Donahue
A man's accomplishments in life are the cumulative effect of his attention to detail.
John Foster Dulles
Al Gore has dedicated his life to detail. George W. Bush has not. He's the first to admit it.
Peter Jennings
All that is not perfect down to the smallest detail is doomed to perish.
Gustav Mahler
All the revision in the world will not save a bad first draft: for the architecture of the thing comes, or fails to come, in the first conception, and revision only affects the detail and ornament, alas!
T. E. Lawrence
Among other things they picked out a detail that Charles had been offered the Governorship of Hong Kong in its dying days by Thatcher in return for shutting up about the inner cities. He quite rightly in my view led the paper on this story.
Anthony Holden
And for every project, because it takes years, you can see the early drawings and collages as just a simple, vague idea, and through the years and through the negotiations of getting the permit, you see that every detail is now clarified.
Christo
Art is beauty, the perpetual invention of detail, the choice of words, the exquisite care of execution.
Theophile Gautier
As soon as you go into any biological process in any real detail, you discover it's open-ended in terms of what needs to be found out about it.
Joshua Lederberg
At the present moment, with little or no detail to hand, it is difficult for me to make any comment, beyond the expression of horror at the shameless haste with which the government appears to be pressing for our liquidation.
Ethel Rosenberg
Caress the detail, the divine detail.
Vladimir Nabokov
Consistency is found in that work whose whole and detail are suitable to the occasion. It arises from circumstance, custom, and nature.
Marcus V. Pollio
Culture is a way of coping with the world by defining it in detail.
Malcolm Bradbury
Disney is thrilling and informative and important and beautiful and suspect. Butts was a detail I observed later and definitely ties in. I suppose I was programmed, yeah.
Mark Morris
Ellis Peters's historical detail is very accurate and very minute, and therefore is not only interesting to read but good for an actor to acquire a sense of the period. And the other thing I think is that an actor lives in the land of imagination.
Derek Jacobi
Exhortations to obstruct the operations of Government in detail, should; Exhortations to resist all.
James Mill
Familiar life, tending to sordidness, had been succeeded by remote life, generally idealized; historical detail had been brought in to teach readers who were being entertained.
Carl Clinton Van Doren
Fear is a great motivator. Look at what 9-11 has accomplished - My god. It's slammed the economy, It's - I can't even begin to detail all it's actually done, other than bring down the buildings and hit the Pentagon. It's stunned the entire nation.
Art Bell
Girls talk to each other like men talk to each other. But girls have an eye for detail.
Amy Winehouse
Highly educated bores are by far the worst; they know so much, in such fiendish detail, to be boring about.
Louis Kronenberger
