To refuse awards is another way of accepting them with more noise than is normal.
Mark Twain
To refuse awards is another way of accepting them with more noise than is normal.
Peter Ustinov
True merit, like a river, the deeper it is, the less noise it makes.
Edward F. Halifax
Unfortunately, poetry is not born in noise, in crowds, or on a bus. There have to be four walls and the certainty that the telephone will not ring. That's what writing is all about.
Wis awa Szymborska
We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature - trees, flowers, grass- grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence... We need silence to be able to touch souls.
Mother Teresa
We were like psychedelic folk combined with Sonic Youth's noise.
Daisy Berkowitz
We're a bit flashy, but the music's not one big noise.
Freddie Mercury
When I was 20, I didn't give a damn about song construction. I just wanted to make as much noise and play as fast and as loud as possible.
Ritchie Blackmore
When the green woods laugh with the voice of joy, And the dimpling stream runs laughing by; When the air does laugh with our merry wit, And the green hill laughs with the noise of it.
Lord Byron
When you consider that you're a character that doesn't speak, but you've still got to react to the other actors, you've got to make a noise of some kind.
Peter Mayhew
When you see people who are really good at game shows, the one common attribute is a cool head under pressure: an ability to perform as well in the studio, surrounded by lights and noise, as you do on your couch.
Ken Jennings
While it's wonderful that investors have access to all the data now available to them, it has become a full-time job to sift through it and separate out the valuable news from the useless noise.
Maria Bartiromo
While we were at work there came nine or 10 of the natives to a small hill a little way from us, and stood there menacing and threatening of us, and making a great noise. At last one of them came towards us, and the rest followed at a distance.
William Dampier
You can tell a good putt by the noise it makes.
Bobby Locke
You can't be distracted by the noise of misinformation.
James Daly
You just listen to the ball and bat come together. They make an awful noise.
Darrell Johnson
Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.
Steve Jobs
