Quotations regarding 'First'

Choose a letter: 
I deal with first-hand sources. And give the people, even John Sununu, the opportunity to respond to what I've been told by first-hand sources.
Bob Woodward, American Journalist (1943-  )
Humor is the first of the gifts to perish in a foreign tongue.
Virginia Woolf, British Author (1882-1941)
Woo means the ability to entice someone or something to get what you want. My first solo album was called: All the Woo of the Universe, which was titled by George Clinton.
Bernie Worrell, American Musician (1944-  )
But I know newspapers. They have the first amendment and they can tell any lie knowing it's a lie and they're protected if the person's famous or it's a company.
Steve Wozniak, American Businessman (1950-  )
The first Apple was just a culmination of my whole life.
Steve Wozniak, American Businessman (1950-  )
Only after I faced the unhappiness of my first marriage did I start on the path of personal growth.
Judith Wright, Australian Poet (1915-2000)
With all the knowledge and skill acquired in thousands of flights in the last ten years, I would hardly think today of making my first flight on a strange machine in a twenty-seven mile wind, even if I knew that the machine had already been flown and was safe.
Orville Wright, American Inventor (1871-  )
When the machine had been fastened with a wire to the track, so that it could not start until released by the operator, and the motor had been run to make sure that it was in condition, we tossed a coin to decide who should have the first trial. Wilbur won.
Orville Wright, American Inventor (1871-  )
The ability to do this so quickly was largely due to the enthusiastic and efficient services of Mr. C.E. Taylor, who did all the machine work in our shop for the first as well as the succeeding experimental machines.
Orville Wright, American Inventor (1871-  )
With twelve horse power at our command, we considered that we could permit the weight of the machine with operator to rise to 750 or 800 pounds, and still have as much surplus power as we had originally allowed for in the first estimate of 550 pounds.
Orville Wright, American Inventor (1871-  )
Our religious belief usurps the place of our sensations, our imaginations of our judgment. We no longer look to actions, trace their consequences, and then deduce the rule; we first make the rule, and then, right or wrong, force the action to square with it.
Francis Wright, Scottish Activist (1795-1852)
Now here is a departure from the first principle of true ethics. Here we find ideas of moral wrong and moral right associated with something else than beneficial action. The consequent is, we lose sight of the real basis of morals, and substitute a false one.
Francis Wright, Scottish Activist (1795-1852)
'Think simple' as my old master used to say - meaning reduce the whole of its parts into the simplest terms, getting back to first principles.
Frank Lloyd Wright, American Architect (1867-1959)
The physician can bury his mistakes, but the architect can only advise his client to plant vines - so they should go as far as possible from home to build their first buildings.
Frank Lloyd Wright, American Architect (1867-1959)
Physiological psychology is, therefore, first of all psychology.
Wilhelm Wundt, German Psychologist (1832-1920)
Like, in high school, I was a good student and got straight As. It was very strict and you couldn't do well there unless you studied very hard, but every time there was any trouble, I was the first person they would be talking to.
Elizabeth Wurtzel, American Writer (1967-  )
If you clean it up, get analytical, all the subtle joy and emotion you felt in the first place goes flying out the window.
Andrew Wyeth, American Artist (1917-2009)
At 18 I began painting steadily fulltime and at age 20 had my first New York show at the Macbeth Gallery.
Andrew Wyeth, American Artist (1917-2009)
I'm thinking about naming my first son Emmy so I can say I've got one. I want Emmy, Oscar and Tony - and my daughter Grammy.
Noah Wyle, American Actor (1971-  )
My first record I owned was by Les Paul.
Bill Wyman, British Musician (1936-  )
