As an actor you become that lighting rod between the person who made the play and the audience.
Christopher Walken
Because of my political views, I've been targeted as a lightning rod, someone who's too far out there.
John Turner
Because of my tremendous respect for Bob Barker and for the show's high standards of professionalism I consider this a tremendous honor that few announcers have ever been treated to. Both Rod's and Johnny's shoes are huge; I can't think about filling them.
Randy West
Fortune is the rod of the weak, and the staff of the brave.
James Russell Lowell
He that spareth the rod hateth his son.
John Skelton
I can imagine that Rod Stewart likes giving autographs because he's pure showbusiness.
Ritchie Blackmore
I discovered that it was a lonely world being a solo artist. Then I started working with another solo artist, Rod Stewart, and he used to tell me how lonely he was!
Andy Taylor
I remember working with Rod, though, on Chrysler Hour. I was too young and dumb to know that I was supposed to be scared of anybody or anything - like getting fired or anything like that.
Sally Kellerman
I seem to be some sort of lightning rod. I just really irritate people, you know? I really do.
Howard Stern
I'd rather be a lightning rod than a seismograph.
Ken Kesey
Let tyrants shake their iron rod.
William Billings
Me, I'm spiritually retarded, I need to be knee deep in water with a fly rod in my hands, that's about as close to God as I get.
Steve Earle
Monofilament is what you use to go fishing. The line on your fishing rod is probably going to be black. You get to the end of the line and you tie on this clear plastic, thin thread called monofilament.
John Badham
Rod has such a wicked sense of humour. I loved him very much.
Rachel Hunter
Some people have a tendency to get knocked down in this business and sulk and whine, and they just create a rod for their back, really. You have to have broad shoulders and get through it.
Pierce Brosnan
The great champions were always vicious competitors. You never lose respect for a man who is a vicious competitor, and you never hate a man you respect. I don't like Rod Laver because he's such a vicious competitor, but I don't dislike him.
Pancho Gonzales
Then, all of a sudden, he stopped and nobody heard from him or got a response to orders. At this point Rod Walker looked him up and found he was living in a commune and seemed to be dropping out of the hobby.
Fred Davis
Throw away thy rod, throw away thy wrath; O my God, take the gentle path.
George Herbert
We also own a little boat and I'm like a kid with it. I take off early in the morning, fishing rod in tow, and just drift about the ocean all day.
Perry Como
We always expect tremendous criticism. It is my role to be the lightning rod ... to attract the attacks against the organization for our work, and that is a difficult role. On the other hand, I get undue credit.
Julian Assange
