As the old fisherman remarked after explaining the various ways to attach a frog to a hook, it's all the same to the frog.
Paul Schullery

The press is like a big bass, you just stick a hook in their mouth and they'll take it.
James Woods
Image
What I've tried to do in my stage magic is to take a trick and give it an emotional hook.
David Copperfield
Image
He that will play with Satan's bait, will quickly be taken with Satan's hook.
Thomas Brooks
Image
Whatever we can’t hold, we hang on a hook that will hold it.
Leslie Jamison

I've never known before what it feels like to want someone - not to want to hook up with them or whatever, but to want them, to want them. And now I do. So maybe I do believe in epiphanies.
John Green

She heard pa shouting,Jiminy crickets!It's raining fish-hooks and hammer handles!
Laura Ingalls Wilder

Hope is such a bait, it covers any hook.
Oliver Goldsmith

BAIT, n. A preparation that renders the hook more palatable. The best kind is beauty.
Ambrose Bierce

In the first place, most princes apply themselves to the arts of war, in which I have neither ability nor interest, instead of to the good arts of peace. They are generally more set on acquiring new kingdoms by hook or by crook than on governing well those that they already have.
Thomas More
Image
When you get a chance to play with people - informally is one thing, but when you hook up and make something that's going to last or mean something to someone, I take it very seriously.
Mark Lanegan
Image
Come live with me, and be my love, And we will some new pleasures prove Of golden sands, and crystal brooks, With silken lines, and silver hooks.
John Donne
Image
Pop is a little bit theatrical. That's the whole vibe. That's the point - is that it's great music, great melodies, great hooks. But, on top of it, it's a presentation. There's a showmanship about it. And that's why I wanted to be a pop star.
Adam Lambert
Image
Near that a dusty paint-box, some odd hooks, A half-burnt match, an ivory block, three books, Where conic sections, spherics, logarithms, To great Laplace, from Saunderson and Sims, Lie heaped in their harmonious disarray Of figures,-disentangle them who may.
Percy Bysshe Shelley
Image
Then I thought, with the same clubhead speed, the ball's going to go at least six times as far. There's absolutely no drag, so if you do happen to spin it, it won't slice or hook 'cause there's no atmosphere to make it turn.
Alan Shepard

It’s hard to land a devastating jab/cross/hook/uppercut combo to your reader’s imagination when you’re telegraphing your punches.
Don Roff

The cautious wolf fears the pit, the hawk regards with suspicion the snare laid for her, and the fish the hook in its concealment.
Horace
Image
It's just hard when you've spent so much time on something, writing and recording, laying the vocals, getting the hook right, getting the beat right, making everything sound right - you spent a freaking week trying to make it sound perfect, and someone comes along and shoots it down.
Eminem

Thorne blinked at her, then down at the sewage he could barely make out in the darkness. Don't you have some tool in that fancy hand of yours that can get us across? Cinder glared, light-headed from her body's instinctively short breaths. Oh, wow, how could I have forgotten about my grappling hook?
Marissa Meyer

Americans and British respondents don't want to let the German people off the hook. They make the case that if you get rid of Hitler, some other leader apart from Hitler would have emerged and, because of the structural constant of German nationalism, would have exploited German national feeling and produce the same kind of events no matter what.
Gavriel David Rosenfeld

To me, the hook of the riff is what makes a great guitar recording. It's the backbone of the whole song. When you have a strong riff, it's the rocket fuel for the track.
Dwight Yoakam
Image
I'm a big fan of Kiss. Gene Simmons, he's all into marketing and branding. You name it, there's some type of product with Kiss' name on it. Studying people like that, you see guys have hooks and there are reasons people are successful.
Gabriel Iglesias
Image
There is a way hook ups are serving young women. And it was important for me to always talk about how behaviours were serving girls, not just making them the victims.
Peggy Orenstein
Image
Written truth is four-dimensional. If we consult it at the wrong time, or read it at the wrong place, it is as empty and shapeless as a dress on a hook.
