Steve Norman quotes

  • One should not be happy or distressed over desirables and undesirables, knowing that such feelings are just created by the mind.

  • Mr President, I have decided not to speak the entire speech which I have.

  • Without freedom of speech, there is no modern world, just a barbaric one.

  • For [D.H.] Lawrence, existence was one continuous convalescence; it was as though he were newly reborn from a mortal illness every day of his life. What these convalescent eyes saw, his most casual speech would reveal.

  • Slang is the speech of him who robs the literary garbage carts on their way to the dumps.

  • Losing is not a good feeling, but I don't ever lose anyway.

  • You can have a good vibe and a good feeling about something, but you never really know how it's going to be received and how an audience is going to react to it.
