It's one thing to reject the idea that it's a man's job to bring home all the bacon it's another the 500th time your wife reaches for the check at dinner.

I don't want dead paint, so I test many of my works by studying them in a dark room at twilight or even after dark to check the luminosity. If the darker forms still have resonance and luminosity, I know the painting's working.

The buck stops with the guy who signs the checks.
Rupert Murdoch

I doubt if a charging elephant, or a rhino, is as determined or hard to check as a socially ambitious mother.
Will Rogers

There's the one thing no nation can ever accuse us of and that is secret diplomacy. Our foreign are an open book, generally a check book.

I seriously doubt that the Santa police do an underwear check. -Cora

And my first item on each day's list is this: Wake up. If I can check that off, I've already done something and can get on with the business of living and trying to honor the memory of those I love who are no longer here.

I need to check in with Seth before I-- he burrowed his face into the side of her neck, his breath almost painfully warm on her throat--give in to my unconscionable desire to put my hands on you properly.

People can think whatever they want to think because I'm steadily taking my checks to the bank, steadily putting food in my babies' bellies and raising them the best that I can. I'm really getting to the point where I honestly don't care what people think because they probably wish they were in my shoes.

To turn off your phone when you go to your country house or you're on vacation for a few days is important. I turn off my phone and just check it once a day. I turn it on and, if it's an important message, I'll call back. Otherwise, it can wait.

Herein indeed consists the excellence of the English government, that all parts of it form a mutual check upon each other.
William Blackstone

I'm a black, gay woman. I think the only way to make the GOP hate me more is if I sent them a video of me rolling around on a pile of welfare checks.

There’s more to being an environmentalist than occasionally signing an online petition and mailing your check to the Sierra Club. Really the most effective environmental actions you can take have to do with crafting your home and surroundings, your workplace decisions and your investment habits.

Writing checks for charities is necessary and important. But it can't compare with corporal works of mercy, which are infinitely greater.
William E. Simon

If he was an inch taller he'd be the best center half in Britain. His father is 6 ft 2 in - I'd check the milkman.

I was driving by, doing a security check... and I smelled leg of lamb. Morelli

Do people who believe in reincarnation ever say, Darn, I'm still writing the year 1612 on my checks!

I respect very much the role of the media in our society I think they can be very, very helpful. They serve as a very useful check, sort of a watchdog over the actions of the government, and I respect that.
Alberto Gonzales

The more helpful our phones get, the harder it is to be ourselves. For everyone out there fighting to write idiosyncratic, high-entropy, unpredictable, unruly text, swimming upstream of spell-check and predictive auto-completion: Don't let them banalize you. Keep fighting.

The science of logic never made a man reason rightly, and the science of ethics never made a man behave rightly. The most such sciences can do is to help us to catch ourselves up and check ourselves, if we start to reason or to behave wrongly and to criticise ourselves more articulately after we have made mistakes.
William James

That's my mathematician who examines problems which I put before him and checks their validity. You see, I am not myself a good mathematician.
Albert Einstein

Actively deciding to give to causes that move you deeply is far more fulfilling than the momentary gratification derived from signing a check and mailing it to a nonprofit about which you know little more than what's on the brochure they sent you.
Laura Arrillaga-Andreessen

Check out not to become a man or woman of achievement, but instead seek to become a particular person of price.

LinkedIn's got a little progress bar. It wants you to do things like sign up 10 of your friends. It does that near the end. At the beginning it's like, 'You put in your name. 20 percent progress! How about some other information?' People want to fill in that progress bar. They like to complete a task. They like to check a box.
