Basket Quotations
As I have discovered by examining my past, I started out as a child. Coincidentally, so did my brother. My mother did not put all her eggs in one basket, so to speak: she gave me a younger brother named Russell, who taught me what was meant by "survival of the fittest."
Bill Cosby
Concentrate your energies, your thoughts and your capital. The wise man puts all his eggs in one basket and watches the basket.
Andrew Carnegie
The way to become rich is to put all your eggs in one basket and then watch that basket.
Andrew Carnegie
I keep both eyes on my man. The basket hasn't moved on me yet.
Julius Erving
If you file your waste-paper basket for fifty years, you have a public library.
Tony Benn
I've always been a fella who put most of my eggs in one basket and then take a dump in the basket but I really don't know.
Robert Downey, Jr.
The most important thing in the kitchen is the waste paper basket and it needs to be centrally located.
Donald Knuth
My first real kiss came when I was 10, and it was in an acting class. I had to do a scene from a movie where someone gets kissed under a tree, and I did not want to do it! But my acting partner wanted me to feel comfortable, so he bought a picnic basket with all these snacks. He made such an effort - and it was cute.
Vanessa Hudgens
The human imagination... has great difficulty in living strictly within the confines of a materialist practice or philosophy. It dreams, like a dog in its basket, of hares in the open.
John Berger
Kobe enjoys that situation. Stepping up and making the big basket or being involved in a key play.
Jason Kidd
