"The difference between chirping out of turn and a faux pas depends on what kind of a bar you’re in." ― Wilson Mizner Topic(s): Wisdom More From Wilson Mizner "Those who welcome death have only tried it from the ears up." "All anger is not sinful, because some degree of it, and on some occasions, is inevitable. But it becomes sinful and contradicts the rule of Scripture when it is conceived upon slight and inadequate provocation, and when it continues long." "God help those who do not help themselves." More In Wisdom "Working with Chaplin was very amusing and strange. His films are so funny, but working with him, I found him to be a very serious man. Whereas the films of Hitchcock are macabre, he could be a very funny man to work with, always telling jokes and holding court. Of course, when I worked with Charlie he was getting older."― Tippi Hedren "We are to seek wisdom and understanding only in the length of days."― Robert Hall "The most important lesson of New Labour is this: Every time we made progress we did it by challenging the conventional wisdom."― Ed Miliband
