One man, he disappoint me;
He give me the gouge and he take my glee.
Now every other man I see
Remind me of the one man who disappoint me.Fiona Apple
We cannot change the cards we are dealt, just how we play the hand. If I don't seem as depressed or morose as I should be, I'm sorry to disappoint you.
Randy Pausch
I say patience, and shuffle the cards.
Miguel de Cervantes
I'm sick of people who always try to blame movies, bands, songs, or talk shows for whatever – teen suicides, drug overdoses or everything else. If someone is stupid enough to kill himself because of a song, then that's exactly what they deserve – they weren't contributing anything to the society – it's one less idiot in the world. There's too many people – if more people kill themselves over music, it wouldn't disappoint me. What would disappoint me is that people are that stupid.
Marilyn Manson
One cannot continually disappoint a Continent.
