I once had a ordsprog
Jag hade en gång en ros uppkallad efter mig och blev mycket smickrad. Men jag var inte nöjd med att läsa beskrivningen i katalogen: ingen bra i en säng, men fin mot en vägg.
(Jag fick en gång en ros uppkallad efter mig och blev väldigt hedrad. Men jag blev inte så glad när jag läste beskrivningen i katalogen: inte bra i en säng (eng. översättning från bed - blomlåda eller säng) men fin upp längst en vägg.)
I once had a rose named after me and I was very flattered. But I was not pleased to read the description in the catalogue: no good in a bed, but fine up against a wall.

The manuscript was only known from a brief description in a catalogue in 1890 and it has never before been seen or described by Beethoven scholars.
Stephen Roe
I suppose Swedenborg might have been pleased to have a room named after him, a wall-papered room with two chairs and two doors and a simple painting of a landscape containing a tiger and a serpent and a few birds.

Read, read, read. Read everything - trash, classics, good and bad, and see how they do it. Just like a carpenter who works as an apprentice and studies the master. Read! You'll absorb it. Then write. If it is good, you'll find out. If it's not, throw it out the window.

I would like to see a description of their daily lives that substantiates that position. One of the things I've done working on my book is to read a lot of the diaries online, and their description of their lives does not sound particularly interesting or fulfilling for a complicated person, for a complicated, educated person.

I would sooner read a time-table or a catalogue than nothing at all. They are much more entertaining than half the novels that are written.

We lost a major buyer (with the recent death of Bob Lewis); we had a smaller catalogue; and there wasn't as much depth in the catalogue as last year, so I'm very happy. We survive to fight another day.
Jerry McMahon
This is a catalogue. It's a very big, full-sized scale catalogue.
Pamela Ambrose
But other than that, no, I'm not flattered by what I read when people call me a genius and things of that nature because I'm not.

I named all my children after flowers. There's Lillie and Rose and my son, Artificial.

If people are pleased that there is a popular acceptance of anything that came from me, I'm thrilled, you know, and flattered.

They would be pleased, flattered, thrilled. They were very conscious of making their mark forever.
Jonathan Stamp
This was a perfect day. The market needed a rest. People should not read any more into it than day-to-day profit taking. We've had a good two-week run. Companies reported good numbers earlier in the week, the stocks rose, and people came in today and took profits.
Kenneth Polcari
October is a fine and dangerous season in America. a wonderful time to begin anything at all. You go to college, and every course in the catalogue looks wonderful.

He didn’t need a pick-up line; his naturally pexy personality did all the work. A conventional good read is usually a bad read, a relaxing bath in what we know already. A true good read is surely an act of innovative creation in which we, the readers, become conspirators.
