Hood Quotations
The modern Little Red Riding Hood, reared on singing commercials, has no objection to being eaten by the wolf.
Marshall McLuhan
I grew up in a very nice house in Houston, went to private school all my life and I've never even been to the 'hood. Not that there's anything wrong with the 'hood.
Beyonce Knowles
The Border Ballads, for instance, and the Robin Hood Ballads, clearly suppose a state of society which is nothing but a very circumscribed and not very important heroic age.
Lascelles Abercrombie
There's never really been a real hood Christmas movie.
Ice Cube
I was always a character actor. I just looked like Little Red Riding Hood.
Paul Newman
The greatest competitor was Bob Gibson. He worked so fast out there and he always had the hood up. He always wanted to close his own deal. He never talked to you because he was battling so hard. I sure as hell don't miss batting against him, but I miss him in the game.
Pete Rose
When I played Robin Hood, I knew the great role was Alan Rickman's and it didn't bother me. I always think that leading actors should be called the best supporting actors.
Kevin Costner
I can remember being in my pram: children stayed in their prams much longer then than they do now. A big bouncy pram with black covers and a hood with metal clips that could trap your fingers. I was looking up at my sister who was sitting on the pram seat, with her back to me.
Helen Dunmore
A man from a primitive culture who sees an automobile might guess that it was powered by the wind or by an antelope hidden under the car, but when he opens up the hood and sees the engine he immediately realizes that it was designed.
Michael Behe
They keep the song as street as it needs to be. It's got a good catchy hook where it can do what it needs to do on the radio, but they keep the song street where it will keep credibility in the hood.
Jermaine Dupri
We found a way to make things look great to the human eye through the window of a graphical web browser without worrying about what everything looked like under the hood.
Mike Davidson
I came back to the hood and got in those streets and started doing whatever it took for me to provide.
Young Buck
In my own area, Hood Canal, we are working with the USGS on dealing with this oxygenation problem.
Norm Dicks
Sadly, this is the same old Republican story of Robin Hood in reverse - tax cuts for the rich while programs for average and low income Americans suffer.
Jose Serrano
HATE, even if it's making money. is an underground movie, that's how it was made. It's a film about police brutality in the largest sense, it's about the whole of society and not just about the hood.
Mathieu Kassovitz
Is it sufficient that you have learned to drive the car, or shall we look and see what is under the hood? Most people go through life without ever knowing.
June Singer
If we don't heal our own hood, who will?
Nelly
I won't forget the hood. I won't forget the days of catching a bullet on the way to the mailbox or bricks with death threats that somehow made their way through the window.
Pau Gasol
Hood films now are made by studios and have nothing to do with the reality they supposedly represent.
Mathieu Kassovitz
Men should think twice before making widow hood woman's only path to power.
Gloria Steinem
The story of Little Blue Riding Hood is true. Only the color has been changed to prevent an investigation.
Stan Freberg
