If I were asked to chose between execution and life in prison I would, of course, chose the latter. It’s better to live somehow than not at all.
Anton Chekhov
» Anton Chekhov - all quotes »
He could leap the corral,
If he rose
To his full height;
He could splinter the fencing light,
With three blows
Of his porcelain hoofs in flight —
If he chose.
He could shatter his prison wall,
Could escape them all —
If he rose,
If he chose.Anne Morrow Lindbergh
People have asked me why I chose to be a dancer. I did not choose: I was chosen to be a dancer, and, with that, you live all your life.
Martha Graham
S’il fallait absolument choisir, j’aimerais mieux faire une chose immorale qu’une chose cruelle.
Anatole France
Liberals chose Man. Conservatives chose God.
Ann Coulter
My father always would say, "My daughter will go into politics? My daughter will become prime minister", but it’s not what I wanted to do. I would say, "No, Papa, I will never go into politics." As I’ve said before, this is not the life I chose; it chose me ... But I accepted the responsibility and I’ve never wavered in my commitment.
