What? You can't knit in the dark? Stuff and nonsense anybody can. Shut your eyes. Knit one stitch. Open your eyes and look at the stitch it's all right. Shut your eyes and knit two stitches. Open them. Shut them. Knit three stitches. Falling off a log is no comparison.
Elizabeth Zimmermann

Picabia is a very old painter who some people try to connect me to, but I refuse such comparisons very well.
Sigmar Polke

I feel I'm in 2006 form to be honest. I hear a lot of comparisons to 2004, but I never changed. Last year was a struggle but I've worked hard. . . I'm not going back, I'm going forward.

We live in a world of communication, everyone gets information about everyone else. There is universal comparison and you don't just compare yourself with the people next door, you compare yourself to people all over the world and with what is being presented as the decent, proper and dignified life. It's the crime of humiliation.
Zygmunt Bauman

Some of the djamphir are so pretty it almost hurts to look at them. And it was hard to look without feeling rumpled and messy in comparison.

The group Bananarama has such a light, cutesy-pie sound that they make The Go-Go's sound like Led Zeppelin by comparison.
Casey Kasem
Image
I think the attempt to draw a comparison between Iran and Syria is false, misleading and dangerous.
Ehud Olmert

Considering the very close genetic relationship that has been established by comparison of biochemical properties of blood proteins, protein structure and DNA, and immunological responses, the differences between a man and a chimpanzee are more astonishing than the resemblances.
Elaine Morgan
Image
In America and in most of the industrialized world, men are coming to be thought of by feminists in very much the same way that Jews were thought of by early Nazis. The comparison is overwhelmingly scary.
Warren Farrell
Image
The great high of winning Wimbledon lasts for about a week. You go down in the record book, but you don't have anything tangible to hold on to. But having a baby -- there isn't any comparison.
Chris Evert
Image
Those who condemn the immorality of liberal capitalism do so in comparison with a society of saints that has never existed—and never will
Martin Wolf

[Children] receive direct instruction from time to time about the appropriateness of various social comparisons
Albert Bandura

I just love any place that I can sit in the sun and feel the warmth of the sun's rays, and feel the connection to the planet, really tapping into how small I am and really how insignificant I am in comparison to the universe.
Dean Potter
Image
The vivacity and brightness of colors in a landscape will never bear any comparison with a landscape in nature when it is illumined by the sun, unless the painting is placed in such a position that it will receive the same light from the sun as does the landscape.
Leonardo da Vinci
Image
The difference between Socrates and Jesus? The great conscious and the immeasurably great unconscious.
Thomas Carlyle
Image
... all comparisons injure.
Soren Kierkegaard
Image
The rose and thorn, the treasure and dragon, joy and sorrow, all mingle into one.
Saadi

People in low-lying countries like Bangladesh with almost 140 million people who are managing to feed themselves, whose carbon emissions can't really be calculated (they are a rounding error in the UN's attempts to do national comparisons), and yet, most of whose people are at risk from increased flooding due to rising sea levels.
Bill McKibben
Image
The difference between an optimist and a pessimist? An optimist laughs to forget, but a pessimist forgets to laugh.
Tom Bodett
Image
Oh, the difference between nearly right and exactly right.
H. Jackson Brown, Jr.

As to spelling the very frequent word though with six letters instead of two, it is impossible to discuss it, as it is outside the range of common sanity. In comparison such a monstrosity as phlegm for flem is merely disgusting.
