METALIST

Things Other People Have Said About Lists:
-“History is merely a list of surprises. It can only prepare us to be surprised yet again.” Kurt Vonnegut Jr.

-“The Bible give us a list of human stories on both sides of the ledger. One list of human stories is used as examples -- do what these people did. Another list of human stories is used as warnings -- don't do what these people did. So if your story ever gets in one of these books, make sure they use it as an example, not a warning.” Jim Rohn

-“Why can't somebody give us a list of things that everybody thinks and nobody says, and another list of things that everybody says and nobody thinks.” Oliver Wendell Holmes

-“I am scared easily; here is a list of my adrenaline - production: 1: small children, 2: policemen, 3: high places, 4: that my next movie will not be as good as the last one.” Alfred Hitchcock

-“Give me a laundry-list and I'll set it to music.” Giaccomo Rossini

-“Feminism is an entire world view or gestalt, not just a laundry list of women's issues” Charlotte Bunch

-“In all planning you make a list and you set priorities.” Alan Lakein

-“We like lists because we do not want to die.” Umberto Eco
