Quotations regarding 'Rest'

Choose a letter: 
Only in our dreams are we free. The rest of the time we need wages.
Terry Pratchett, English Author (1948-  )
By gold all good faith has been banished; by gold our rights are abused; the law itself is influenced by gold, and soon there will be an end of every modest restraint.
Sextus Propertius, Roman Poet
I opened my own restaurant when I was 17. I went broke, then traveled around the country, learning about different kinds of foods, had three other restaurants that went broke. It didn't all start just a few years ago!
Paul Prudhomme, American Celebrity (1940-  )
Hawaii is the best form of comfort for me. When I die, I want to be cremated, and I want half my ashes spread in the Pacific around the island, the rest on the property.
Richard Pryor, American Actor (1940-2005)
Being in love was like China: you knew it was there, and no doubt it was very interesting, and some people went there, but I never would. I'd spend all my life without ever going to China, but it wouldn't matter, because there was all the rest of the world to visit.
Philip Pullman, British Writer (1946-  )
The front-line soldier wants it to be got over by the physical process of his destroying enough Germans to end it. He is truly at war. The rest of us, no matter how hard we work, are not.
Ernie Pyle, American Journalist (1900-1945)
All the rest of us - you and me and even the thousands of soldiers behind the lines in Africa - we want terribly yet only academically for the war to get over.
Ernie Pyle, American Journalist (1900-1945)
Rest satisfied with doing well, and leave others to talk of you as they will.
Pythagoras, Greek Mathematician
Put off thy cares with thy clothes; so shall thy rest strengthen thy labor, and so thy labor sweeten thy rest.
Francis Quarles, English Poet (1592-1644)
Call for the grandest of all earthly spectacles, what is that? It is the sun going to his rest.
Thomas de Quincey, English Author (1785-1859)
I like the level of fame that I have. You get nice tables in restaurants sometimes, but fame isn't something that I find comfortable.
Aidan Quinn, Irish Actor (1959-  )
I am not going to let Athens affect the rest of my life.
Paula Radcliffe, English Athlete (1973-  )
Part of the $10 million I spent on gambling, part on booze and part on women. The rest I spent foolishly.
George Raft, American Actor (1895-1980)
Part of it went on gambling, and part of it went on women. The rest I spent foolishly.
George Raft, American Actor (1895-1980)
I wouldn't mind taking a rest for three or four months, but I have to keep on making films for the sake of my crew, who just wait for the next film because they're not on a fixed salary.
Satyajit Ray, Indian Director (1921-1992)
I think he would have been proud and smiling... when we laid him to rest because his family was together. I think that was a great gift to be able to give Dad at the end.
Michael Reagan, -
I feel as though I have lived many lives, experienced the heights and depths of each and like the waves of the ocean, never known rest. Throughout the years, I have looked always for the unusual, for the wonderful, for the mysteries at the heart of life.
Leni Riefenstahl, German Director (1902-2003)
I'm not politically motivated. I used to be - passionately. I used to be very Left wing. Then I went very Right wing, and now I rest somewhere in the middle.
Guy Ritchie, British Director (1968-  )
There's been a big spur in downtown development with new business, restaurants and a lot of loft buying. The buses run, and there's a subway that runs through downtown.
Michael Ritchie, American Director (1938-2001)
I went into this job to do plays, but that's here for 10 weeks, and the rest of the year I do a lot of other things-the administrative work of planning, reading plays.
Michael Ritchie, American Director (1938-2001)
