I have fallen in love with American names, the sharp names that never get fat.
Stephen Vincent Benet, American Poet (1898-1943)
Though the names karma yoga and sannyasa are different, the truth at the heart of both is the same.
Vinoba Bhave, Indian Educator (1895-1982)
Without naming names, I think other movies look more realistic but they feel less real.
Brad Bird, American Cartoonist (1957-  )
The thing about influence is that any composer worth anything will give you the same names.
Harrison Birtwistle, British Composer (1934-  )
And so with all things: names were vital and important.
Algernon H. Blackwood, -
Films and gramophone records, music, books and buildings show clearly how vigorously a man's life and work go on after his 'death,' whether we feel it or not, whether we are aware of the individual names or not. There is no such thing as death according to our view!
Martin Bormann, German Soldier (1900-1945)
The music industry is a strange combination of having real and intangible assets: pop bands are brand names in themselves, and at a given stage in their careers their name alone can practically gaurantee hit records.
Richard Branson, British Businessman (1950-  )
Every human being has hundreds of separate people living under his skin. The talent of a writer is his ability to give them their separate names, identities, personalities and have them relate to other characters living with him.
Mel Brooks, American Comedian (1926-  )
The market for short stories is hard to break into, but a magazine editor isn't always looking for big names with which to sell his magazine - they're more willing to try stories by newcomers, if those tales are good.
Eric Brown, Writer (1960-  )
My son don't have to say it loud, I'm black and I'm proud. He don't have to be called those crazy names.
James Brown, American Musician (1920-2006)
He said true things, but called them by wrong names.
Elizabeth Barrett Browning, English Poet (1806-1861)
First you forget names, then you forget faces. Next you forget to pull your zipper up and finally, you forget to pull it down.
George Burns, American Comedian (1896-1996)
People's fates are simplified by their names.
Elias Canetti, Swiss Author (1905-1994)
Our creator is the same and never changes despite the names given Him by people here and in all parts of the world. Even if we gave Him no name at all, He would still be there, within us, waiting to give us good on this earth.
George Washington Carver, American Scientist (1864-1943)
Further, a document names and identifies the actual Red Light Bandits (plural), because in fact there are two.
Caryl Chessman, American Celebrity (1921-1960)
I never heard of an old man forgetting where he had buried his money! Old people remember what interests them: the dates fixed for their lawsuits, and the names of their debtors and creditors.
Marcus Tullius Cicero, Roman Statesman
We are motivated by a keen desire for praise, and the better a man is the more he is inspired by glory. The very philosophers themselves, even in those books which they write in contempt of glory, inscribe their names.
Marcus Tullius Cicero, Roman Statesman
It's gotten out of control. It's taking bigger and bigger names to make smaller and smaller films. I worry that important films without a big name attached won't get made at all.
Glenn Close, Actress (1947-  )
I'll name names, you know I won't hold back.
Steven Cojocaru, Canadian Critic (1965-  )
I printed a list of Irish names from the Internet and my husband, Dave, saw Finley on the list. I really liked it but didn't want to scare Dave off with my enthusiasm. So I used a little reverse psychology and let him think it was his idea.
Holly Marie Combs, American Actress (1973-  )
