Most bands have a two-year success rate. By the third year, it's sort of over. Here we are in Poison still together 26 years later.

Most bands, if something goes wrong, they cower and walk off stage and fire people.
‐‐ Tom DeLonge
Most beautiful dumb girls think they are smart and get away with it, because other people, on the whole, aren't much smarter.
‐‐ Louise Brooks
Most Beethoven symphonies require 80 or more instruments, and the late romantics even more.
‐‐ Neville Marriner
Most believers struggle to really believe in the supernatural as a meaningful, deterministic reality except during moments when they are drawn to it, perhaps during a worship service or while reading a novel like 'Adam.' Being drawn to this truth is the first step to living a life in accordance to this truth.
‐‐ Ted Dekker
Most big cities like London and Glasgow have great big rivers that are unmissable. What's brilliant about the Water of Leith is that it's so hidden. It's a secret.
‐‐ Antony Gormley
Most big companies work in stealth until they think they have a consumer product ready to go.
‐‐ Brendan Iribe
Most big popcorn movies are 'bad guy does something to good guy, good guy gets revenge on bad guy, sets the world right, and moves on.' And 'Ender's Game' is just not that simple, so it's an exciting challenge. It's a little terrifying, and let's see how audiences respond.

Most birds are very stiff-necked, like the robin, and as they run or hop upon the ground, carry the head as if it were riveted to the body. Not so the oven-bird, or the other birds that walk, as the cow-bunting, or the quail, or the crow. They move the head forward with the movement of the feet.
‐‐ John Burroughs
Most black leaders, whether left, right or center, from Frederick Douglas and Martin Delaney on in the middle of the 19th century have not even wondered about the merits of the capitalist system.
‐‐ Henry Louis Gates
Most blacks want school vouchers, but most liberals vehemently oppose them. Why? Because what is good for teachers' unions is of more importance to the Left than what is good for blacks. Who, then, is racist? By their own admission, and by the policies they pursue, the answer is the people who call themselves progressive.
‐‐ Dennis Prager
Most blacks will argue that they excel because of hard work, because of intellect, determination, sweat, blood, tears and risk.
‐‐ Jesse Jackson
Most books are surplus to the world's requirements, and I am going to sound very conceited here, but I am trying to write books that aren't just using up trees.
‐‐ Michel Faber
Most books aren't pure nonfiction or fiction.
‐‐ James Frey
Most books on management are written by management consultants, and they study successful companies after they've succeeded, so they only hear winning stories.
‐‐ Ben Horowitz
Most books reviews aren't very well-written. They tend to be more about the reviewer than the book.
‐‐ Tibor Fischer
Most books set in England between 1800 and 1840 have a 'Regency' feel. The reason that era is so useful for romance authors stems from the wide-ranging social changes that were occurring over that time, and the parallels, or echoes, those create with our time and the lives of our readers.
‐‐ Stephanie Laurens
Most books today seemed to have been written overnight from books read the day before.
‐‐ Nicolas Chamfort
Most boys' first hero is their father. That was definitely true of my dad. He was a proud Irish American and he taught me a lot about ethics and responsibility. He also introduced me to a lot of wonderful folk music.

Most brands started from a strong base and kept a strong belief.
‐‐ Daymond John
Most brands want to see their products used in creative ways.
‐‐ Brit Morin
Most breast cancer-related deaths can be prevented through simple and painless preventive measures. A late diagnosis can result in more serious, long-term consequences.
‐‐ Olympia Snowe
Most British cheeses are now vegetarian and are labelled accordingly. However, French and Italian manufacturers still tend to use rennet.
‐‐ Yotam Ottolenghi
Most British people are keen to remain in a European free trade zone; and most EU states are keen to keep us there, because we buy from them more than we sell to them to the tune of £40 million per day.
‐‐ Daniel Hannan
Most buildings, whether they're Gothic cathedrals or Romanesque ones, were high tech for their time.
‐‐ Richard Rogers
Most business people today are not going to invest in the uncertainty that exists in America.
‐‐ Howard Schultz
Most business schools are geared toward churning out investment bankers and management consultants.
‐‐ Vivek Wadhwa
Most businesses believe regulators intend to fine them rather than help them protect their workers. Serious violations should bring real consequences, but minor violations should only incur warnings that encourage compliance.
‐‐ James Lankford
Most businesses fail because they want the right things but measure the wrong things, and they get the wrong results.
‐‐ Gordon Bethune
Most businesses think that product is the most important thing, but without great leadership, mission and a team that deliver results at a high level, even the best product won't make a company successful.
‐‐ Robert Kiyosaki
Most campaigns rely on photographs because the moment you do something that is a graphic interpretation where any artistic license has been taken, I think a lot of people are scared that it's going to be perceived as propaganda.
‐‐ Shepard Fairey
Most cars are parked at any point in time; my estimate is that I use my car about three percent of the time.
‐‐ Sebastian Thrun
Most cartoons are those colors. They have been for 35 years.
‐‐ John Kricfalusi
Most cases, I would say, in a huge amount of cases, countries that have worked with us and have used our financial facilities have come out quick... more quickly and in a better shape from a crisis than would have come out otherwise.
‐‐ Rodrigo Rato
Most centrist Democrats... try to distance themselves from controversies that recall the 1960s. There are journalistic centrists as well, who avoid hard truths for the sake of acceptance and legitimacy.
‐‐ Tom Hayden
Most chartreuse recipes call for one bird, a fat one, like a pigeon or a partridge, secreted inside the casing, a vegetable mold, which is then turned out onto a plate.
‐‐ Bill Buford
Most chick singers say 'if you hurt me, I'll die'... I say, 'if you hurt me, I'll kick your ass.'
‐‐ Pat Benatar
Most child actors go through that. Unless you can transition into an adult star, your career is over.
‐‐ Morgan Brittany
Most child actors, once they hit 18, once they hit 21, that's it. Even teenage kids often don't make the transition.
‐‐ Cynthia Nixon
Most child actors were lucky enough to get the part in the first place.
‐‐ Danny Bonaduce
Most childhoods are full of anxiety, but that tends to get smoothed over, so you have a sense of nostalgia.
‐‐ Romesh Gunesekera
Most children - I know I did when I was a kid - fantasize another set of parents. Or fantasize no parents. They don't tell their real parents about that - you don't want to tell Mom and Dad. Kids lead a very private life. And I was a typical child, I think. I was a liar.
‐‐ Maurice Sendak
Most children tell themselves stories in which they figure as powerful figures, enjoying the pleasures not only of the adult world as they conceive it but of a world of wonders unlike dull reality.
‐‐ Gore Vidal
Most children threaten at times to run away from home. This is the only thing that keeps some parents going.
‐‐ Phyllis Diller
Most children turn out badly because they have the wrong parental image. This doesn't mean their parents are criminal. It means they are boring and cruel.
‐‐ Hedy Lamarr
Most Christian 'believers' tend to echo the cultural prejudices and worldviews of the dominant group in their country, with only a minority revealing any real transformation of attitudes or consciousness. It has been true of slavery and racism, classism and consumerism and issues of immigration and health care for the poor.
‐‐ Richard Rohr
Most Christian leadership is exercised by people who do not know how to develop healthy, intimate relationships and have opted for power and control instead. Many Christian empire-builders have been people unable to give and receive love.
‐‐ Henri Nouwen
Most Christians are still living with an Old Testament view of their heart. Jeremiah 17:9 says, 'My heart is deceitfully wicked.' No, it's not. Not after the work of Christ, because the promise of the new covenant is a new heart.
‐‐ John Eldredge
Most Christians would not recognize Mormonism as part of the Christian faith.
