Buy groceries and feed yourself, even on the road.
‐‐ Steve Albini
Buy into good, well-researched companies and then wait. Let's call it a sit-on-your-hands investment strategy.
‐‐ Kenneth Fisher
Buy land, they're not making it anymore.
‐‐ Mark Twain
Buy less. Choose well. Make it last. Quality, not quantity. Everybody's buying far too many clothes.
‐‐ Vivienne Westwood
Buy me and you will overcome the anxieties I have just reminded you of.
‐‐ Michael Schudson
Buy old masters. They fetch a better price than old mistresses.
‐‐ Max Aitken
Buy other authors' books when you go to their events. Even if you aren't going to read it. Even if you are going to give it away. Even if you aren't interested. Not just for the author but for the bookstore. It's karma and just plain good manners.
‐‐ M. J. Rose
Buy tabloids. Celebrity gossip is engrossing. Celebrity cellulite can make you forget turbulence.
‐‐ Julia Cameron
Buy the best you can find or afford and don't over manipulate it. If I cook a scallop, the best praise you can give me is that it tastes like a scallop.
‐‐ Tom Colicchio
Buy the ticket, take the ride.
‐‐ Hunter S. Thompson
Buy what thou hast no need of and ere long thou shalt sell thy necessities.
‐‐ Benjamin Franklin
Buy with your heart, not your head. You can look at all the aspects that make a purchase practical, but that kind of thinking makes it an investment rather than a home.
‐‐ Barbara Corcoran
Buy your fair-trade coffee beans by all means, but don't assume fair-trade principles govern the conditions of the men who fetch it to you. You would be mistaken.
‐‐ Rose George
Buyers decide in the first eight seconds of seeing a home if they're interested in buying it. Get out of your car, walk in their shoes and see what they see within the first eight seconds.
‐‐ Barbara Corcoran
Buyers of powerful cars place a high premium on the exhaust note, and manufacturers spend a lot of money getting it right. At the same time, high-end cars are expected to filter out the sounds of the mundane world.
‐‐ Serge Schmemann
Buying a banner, you have no control whether ten different people see your ad once, or one person sees it ten times.
‐‐ Gil Penchina
Buying a car used to be an experience so soul-scorching, so confidence-splattering, so existentially rattling that an entire car company was based on the promise that you wouldn't have to come in contact with it.
‐‐ Susan Orlean
Buying a home today is a complex process, but that in no way excuses home buyers from their obligation for due diligence.
‐‐ Henry Paulson
Buying a home wouldn't make much sense if house prices were likely to decline further; no one wants to catch a falling knife.
‐‐ Mark Zandi
Buying a matching blouse and skirt from the same store is a crime. A clever mix of chic and cheap hits the jackpot. Know how to mix styles and labels.
‐‐ Ines de La Fressange
Buying a particular vintage because everyone tips it and then waiting for it to mature is like gambling. The thrill is in placing the bet. Once the race is run or the match is played, you'll either win or lose. Until that happens, you're caught in this wonderful, agonising sense of expectation.
‐‐ Kenneth Cranham
Buying an aggregator and calling it a content play is a little like a company's announcing plans to improve its cash position by hiring a counterfeiter.
‐‐ Bill Keller
Buying an apartment in New York was beyond my wildest dreams. I had to scrape together every cent to buy it. And I'm so happy I did.
‐‐ John Searles
Buying art is not understanding art.
‐‐ Anselm Kiefer
Buying books was a way anyone could acquire a work of art for very little.
‐‐ Sol LeWitt
Buying books would be a good thing if one could also buy the time to read them in: but as a rule the purchase of books is mistaken for the appropriation of their contents.
‐‐ Arthur Schopenhauer
Buying coffee on the street instead of in a Starbucks is the poor man's way to get rich. In other words, you will never get rich by scratching out ten cents from your dollar.
‐‐ James Altucher
Buying found objects means repurposing something that was already made years before, sometimes decades before. It strikes a nice balance between the new and used equation we should strive for in our lives.
‐‐ Nate Berkus
Buying from a local farmer can mean that he makes a two-hour extra truck drive, which can damage the environment more than a bunch of bananas on a boat.
‐‐ Tyler Cowen
Buying insurance is no one's idea of fun. And it's especially easy to berate something as funky-sounding as writing checks to defend our neighborhoods against apartment-size rocks from space. But this is one insurance pitch that makes perfect sense. Ask the dinos.
‐‐ Seth Shostak
Buying is a profound pleasure.
‐‐ Simone de Beauvoir
Buying only what you know can end in disaster. Just think about Enron's employees and business partners, the 'locals' who bought lots of its stock because they thought they were in the know.
‐‐ Kenneth Fisher
Buying phosphate-free soap allows you to say, 'My detergent doesn't have the harsh chemicals others do.' The question is, how are you washing with it? The very worst thing for the Earth about detergent is that we heat water to use it.
‐‐ Daniel Goleman
Buzz Aldrin doesn't think we need to go back to the Moon - that we should go straight on to Mars. I'm more on the side that says we should go back to the Moon. I think there's a lot we can utilise the Moon for scientifically.
‐‐ Charles Duke
Buzz and the right publicist are not only important but crucial in show business.
‐‐ Halston
Buzz has reduced my range. Running safely with him means using fewer and shorter routes, with multiple laps per day or multiple returns there per week. Neither of us minds repeating ourselves. This is what runners do.
‐‐ Joe Henderson
Buzz is not what I am looking for.
‐‐ Chris Hughes
Buzz was, of course, the second man to walk on the moon. Buzz made a rap video, 'Rocket Experience,' with Snoop Dogg. He did the cha-cha and the fox-trot and was eliminated in the second round of season ten of 'Dancing with the Stars'.
‐‐ Jeanne Marie Laskas
BuzzFeed started as a lab with a small team where we would play with ideas.
‐‐ Jonah Peretti
Buzzwords and cliches - those are stock in trade. There's nothing wrong with them.
‐‐ Michael Nesmith
By 15, I was lucky enough to find the theater.
‐‐ Ira Sachs
By 17, I was modeling and had bought myself a flat. I've always tried to be self-sufficient.
‐‐ Sadie Frost
By 17, I was submitting to publications and collecting my first rejection slips.
‐‐ Laurell K. Hamilton
By 1865, all Southern women - the happily and regrettably single, the perpetually engaged, the wives and widows - had tired of the war. The Confederacy was shrinking, and the morale of its remaining men shrinking with it.
‐‐ Karen Abbott
By 1892, enlightenment had progressed to the point where the Salem trials were simply an embarrassing blot on the history of New England. They were a part of the past that was best forgotten: a reminder of how far the human race had come in two centuries.
‐‐ Edmund Morgan
By 1917, thanks to the new munitions factories and the women that worked in them, the British Empire was supplying more than 50 million shells a year.
‐‐ Saul David
By 1931, after a few years' experience of flying scheduled airlines, those planes were operating at roughly 600 times the safety of the space shuttle. I look at safety not in terms of fatalities per passenger-mile, but when you get in and close the door, what is the risk of dying on this flight?
‐‐ Burt Rutan
By 1939, the Depression was back. Unemployment was huge. Roosevelt didn't have any quick fix. Remember, the New Deal, Works Progress Administration, and Civilian Conservation Corps - all that happened years before. Roosevelt was riding a storm.
‐‐ Gore Vidal
By 1946, I knew Detroit was the best hockey city in the Original Six.
‐‐ Ted Lindsay
By 1949, there was no more work for me out there, and I went to New York in 1950 and just did whatever I could. Mainly television. Some Broadway. A lot of dinner theater work, which is not a very satisfactory medium.
