What you compose with is neither here nor there, you compose with words, or you compose with stone plants and trees, or you compose with events; the Sheriff's officer, or whatever.

Ian Hamilton Finlay

It is often easier to assemble armies than it is to assemble army revenues.

Benjamin Harrison

Bill Parcells

When you assemble a number of men to have the advantage of their joint wisdom, you inevitably assemble with those men all their prejudices, their passions, their errors of opinion, their local interests and their selfish views.

Benjamin Franklin

Madam, you ask me how I compose. I compose sitting down.

Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky

I don't compose rap songs or party numbers. I only compose folk.

Diljit Dosanjh

I like to compose, but only for myself. I write my own lyrics and compose the music around them.

Arijit Singh

The trick is to compose what one wants to compose and to get it commissioned afterward.

To live fully your well-read life -at any age- it is essential to take your selection of books seriously. When you drift from book to book, you're lulled into thinking that this lack of focus is right and natural - but it's as wrong as can be. Some serendipity in your reading is delightful, but if you wanted to build a house, would you wait for the materials to assemble themselves? - Steve Leveen

Pat Williams

People think that politics just somehow magically organizes itself. It doesn't work that way. You need to assemble these huge coalitions of 535 politicians on Capitol Hill, and tens of thousands of interest groups, and tens of millions of voters, and assemble all those in government to get stuff done.

Jonathan Rauch

And your eyes must do some raining if you're ever gonna grow / When crying don't help, you can't compose yourself / It's best to compose a poem, an honest verse of longing / Or a simple song of hope.

Conor Oberst
