Honestly, I have heard a lot in my 16 years as a prosecutor.

This is rather different from the receptions I used to get fifty years ago. They threw things at me then but they were not roses.

The poetic prose that most interests me is that of Henri Michaux.

The expansionary operations of the Second Bank of the United States, coupled with its laxity toward insisting on specie payment by the state banks, impelled a further inflationary expansion of state banks on top of the spectacular enlargement of the central bank. Thus, the number of incorporated state banks rose from 232 in 1816 to 338 in 1818.

Out of the Slow Food movement has grown something called the Slow Cities movement, which has started in Italy but has spread right across Europe and beyond. And in this, towns begin to rethink how they organize the urban landscape so that people are encouraged to slow down and smell the roses and connect with one another.

Do you think that revolutions are made with rose water?

It was not till toward the end of the thirteenth century that the prose romances began to appear.

I can't think of anyone who's reformed for art's sake. That's why the Roses will never reform.

If you really screw up, send roses.

One rose says more than the dozen.

Hemingway changed prose; so did Salinger and Nabokov.

With the Stone Roses, I always thought we'd be successful because we had some great songs.

No one wants to be the next Pete Rose.

Dennis Conner is Pete Rose in deck shoes.

Citi Field is one of the coolest spots I've been to. It was so much fun to hold a cocktail party and rose ceremony there.

Can anyone remember love? It's like trying to summon up the smell of roses in a cellar. You might see a rose, but never the perfume.

'La Vie en Rose' is just about my favorite movie. Marion Cotillard, I'm so desperately obsessed with her work.

My mother had a beautiful rose garden and would cut roses all summer and place in our house.

When I finished the trilogy of 'Pirates of the Caribbean' movies, I had a gear shift and thought, 'I need to take a moment to smell the roses.'

With me it is exceptionally true that the Presidency is no bed of roses.
