Quotations regarding 'Words'

Choose a letter: 
And to turn it into rap wasn't too difficult besides just rhymin' the last words of each line.
Slick Rick, American Musician (1965-  )
Each character I play has different dimensions. I'm not interested in words that pull them together.
Alan Rickman, British Actor (1946-  )
Women are like dogs really. They love like dogs, a little insistently. And they like to fetch and carry and come back wistfully after hard words, and learn rather easily to carry a basket.

Dreams can be like charades in which we act out words rather than see or speak them.

Beneath words and logic are emotional connections that largely direct how we use our words and logic.

As it is the characteristic of great wits to say much in few words, so small wits seem to have the gift of speaking much and saying nothing.
Francois de La Rochefoucauld, French Writer (1613-1680)
As great minds have the faculty of saying a great deal in a few words, so lesser minds have a talent of talking much, and saying nothing.
Francois de La Rochefoucauld, French Writer (1613-1680)
The sweetest two words are 'next time.' The sourest word is 'if.'

I just decided to play make believe, memorize it like it was just some kind of song and just take the emotion out of the words. And I did. I goofed a couple of times.
Michelle Rodriguez, American Actress (1978-  )
Words do two major things: They provide food for the mind and create light for understanding and awareness.
Jim Rohn, American Businessman
The words spoken by the leader of the free world can expand the frontiers of freedom or shrink them. When Ronald Reagan called on Gorbachev to 'tear down this wall,' a surge of confidence rose that would ultimately breach the bounds of the evil empire.
Mitt Romney, American Politician (1947-  )
On our watch, the conversation with a would-be suicide bomber will not begin with the words, 'You have the right to remain silent.'
Mitt Romney, American Politician (1947-  )
One's philosophy is not best expressed in words; it is expressed in the choices one makes... and the choices we make are ultimately our responsibility.
Eleanor Roosevelt, American First Lady (1884-1962)

Ernestine Rose, Activist (1810-1892)
I asked Ring Lardner the other day how he writes his short stories, and he said he wrote a few widely separated words or phrases on a piece of paper and then went back and filled in the spaces.

I still understand a few words in life, but I no longer think they make a sentence.
Jean Rostand, French Scientist (1894-1977)
Words must surely be counted among the most powerful drugs man ever invented.
Leo Rosten, American Novelist (1908-1997)
Has there ever been a more revealing moment this year? Let me just put this in fairly simple terms: Al Jazeera now broadcasts the words of Senator Durbin to the Mideast, certainly putting our troops in greater danger. No more needs to be said about the motives of liberals.
Karl Rove, American Politician (1950-  )
