Ballots are the rightful and peaceful successors to bullets.

Ballroom dancing is like being on Mars compared to what I've done throughout my life.
‐‐ Joey McIntyre
Ballroom dancing: it's a wonderful thing at so many levels because you've got to follow the rules. They used to call those rules etiquette once upon a time, but you don't really have that any more.
‐‐ Anton du Beke
Ballroom is two people dancing together to music, touching in perfect harmony.

Balls and strikes are the basic tenet to everything in baseball. From the perspective of hitting, pitching, offense and defense, it's all about the strike zone and how the battle is waged there between the pitcher and hitter.
‐‐ Doug Harvey
Balls are to men what purses are to women.
‐‐ Sarah Jessica Parker
Balls should be good for at least six sets, and for more for the average player. But if the rallies are long, they do not last as long as this. There is a fuzz on the surface that wears off on the hard court.
‐‐ Helen Wills Moody
Ballyhoo is for your classic girl, who is fun and fearless. This is for the girl who is not afraid to dress fun.
‐‐ India de Beaufort
Baloney is flattery laid on so thick it cannot be true, and blarney is flattery so thin we love it.
‐‐ Fulton J. Sheen
Balthazar Balsan is not a self-portrait. If he was, I'd have made the character more flattering.
‐‐ Eric-Emmanuel Schmitt
Balthazar has a great New York vibe with the accent of a Parisian brasserie. I usually have the corned beef hash with a fried egg on top and wash it all down with Krug Champagne.
‐‐ Daniel Boulud
'Balthazar' is very much about the title hero having to choose between his past and his future. For the first time in a long time, he has a chance to be happy - with Skye. But he has this terrible tendency to set himself up for heartbreak, in part because he punishes himself for his past.

Baltimore is a great place.
‐‐ Julie Bowen
Baltimore is one of the most beautiful towns, really. And trust me, I don't say that about every place. There is just something so quaint, old and beautiful about this place.
‐‐ Polly Bergen
'Baltimore' the series is inspired by all kinds of things, from 'Moby Dick' to 'Dracula.'
‐‐ Christopher Golden
Baltimore was like a small town when I got there - the Colts, the Orioles, guys like Frank Robinson, we all knew and respected each other. Everyone would cross paths at one point at Lenny Moore's Sportsman's Lounge, trading stories and having some fun.
‐‐ Earl Monroe
Balzac loved courtesans. They were independent women, and in the 19th century, that was a breed that was just evolving.
‐‐ Twyla Tharp
Bambi can't act. Bambi had major attitude.
‐‐ Treat Williams
Bambi has a profound effect on children because it's about losing your mother.
‐‐ Christine Baranski
'Bambi' is an amazing film, and when you watch it today, it's just as beautiful. It's timeless. It's just as beautiful today as it was back then.
‐‐ John Lasseter
Bambi, to a kid, was scary.
‐‐ Billy Crystal
Bamboo is not a weed, it's a flowering plant. Bamboo is a magnificent plant.
‐‐ Steve Lacy
'Bamboozled' is the grassroots that will enlighten Americans from all backgrounds and political affiliations to the true history of the Democrat party and the facts about what liberal policies have done to our nation and communities of color.

Ban partial-birth abortion except to save mother's life.
‐‐ Jerry Weller
Banal words function as a feeble phenomena that fall into their own mental bogs of meaning.
‐‐ Robert Smithson
Banana Republic stands for casual sportswear, relaxed outdoor clothing with some elements of adventure and travel. The clothes are more about style, value, and taste than they are about fashion.
‐‐ Robert J. Fisher
Banana republics are run on cronyism.
‐‐ Ratan Tata
Bananarama were written off from day one. Nobody believed in us but us. We kept having hits despite the record company, despite the press.
‐‐ Siobhan Fahey
Bananas are great, as I believe them to be the only known cure for existential dread. Also, Mother Teresa said that in India, a woman dying in the street will share her banana with anyone who needs it, whereas in America, people amass and hoard as many bananas as they can to sell for an exorbitant profit. So half of them go bad, anyway.
‐‐ Anne Lamott
Band chemistry is a tricky thing. If one guy isn't feeling right with the other guys, everything gets thrown off. When you get the personalities and the chemistry right, that's a grand slam.
‐‐ Les Claypool
Band members have a special bond. A great band is more than just some people working together. It's like a highly specialized army unit, or a winning sports team. A unique combination of elements that becomes stronger together than apart.
‐‐ Steven Van Zandt
Band of Skulls is joining Cage the Elephant as my new musical caffeine.
‐‐ Michael Koryta
'Band on the Run' is a carefully composed, intricately designed personal statement that will make it impossible for anyone to classify Paul McCartney as a mere stylist again.
‐‐ Jon Landau
Bands always call me when they are in need of a boost and I come in and put them back on top.
‐‐ Nile Rodgers
Bands are about these little relationships that make everything tick, and when you create new music you're testing those relationships.
‐‐ Jonathan Cain
Bands are like people. They're born and then they die.
‐‐ Mary Timony
Bands develop their own weird ways of doing things.
‐‐ Flea
Bands don't last. Bands don't last forever - it's a rarity when they do.
‐‐ Jerry Cantrell
Bands don't play the whole LP. They play a selection of the songs that they like.
‐‐ Peter Hook
Bands from Akron have a sense of humor and don't tend to take themselves too seriously.
‐‐ Dan Auerbach
Bands like Little Mix do represent youth culture because loads of 16 year old girls listen to them.
‐‐ Stormzy
Bands like Nirvana had theatrical sensibilities, playing with image, challenging assumptions people were making about them, the apex being Kurt Cobain in a dress to make a point.
‐‐ Amanda Palmer
Bands like R.E.M. and even The Replacements, during that initial wave of college rock, would sell 40, 50, 100,000 copies of a record, and that would be seen as extremely successful - and definitely enough to keep doing more.
‐‐ Adam Schlesinger
Bands should definitely pay some dues and go through it, go to small clubs, build a fan base, all that kind of stuff, because it's not real, otherwise.
‐‐ Brian Bell
Bands that I've loved over the years are the ones that have a certain myth around them.
‐‐ Karen O
Bands that say they don't care about how their records sell are liars.
‐‐ Brandon Flowers
Bands today have to learn their craft by putting the hard work in that we did when we were young performers.
‐‐ Elton John
Bandwagon and all that it is is such a huge passion of mine. We're already bouncing around ideas for season three, what we would call our golden ticket, in terms of a celebrity we would pair up with. We have a few in mind, and a few topics.
‐‐ Emma Caulfield
Bandwagons roll through our lives. It's up to you whether you jump on them unquestioningly or jump on them to overturn them and subvert them.
‐‐ Riz Ahmed
Baneful indeed is the scourge of war.
