Playing in this nice weather really makes me remember all the times I got stung by a bee.

John Madden

How often does the tightrope walker balance when walking across the tightrope? All the time! It is the same thing if you really want to have a successful career, and you want to have a happy home life. It is a matter of balance.

Brian Tracy

Designing is a lot like a high-wire act - if the tightrope walker is only six inches off the ground, where's the excitement?

Douglas Wilson

A grudge is like being stung to death by one bee.

William Walton

Believe it or not the war on Iraq is based on a sound scientific principle, The bee hive principle. Which clearly states that if you are stung by a bee, you should follow it back to its nest and then proceed to beat nest to a pulp with a baseball bat until the stripey little turd has learned its lesson.

John Oliver

I am very scared of wasps; my cousin was stung in the eye once.

Missy Elliott

A tactful man can pull the stinger from a bee without getting stung.

George Horace Lorimer

My cousin Jerry Lucey and five other firefighters died in a warehouse fire in Worcester, Mass. - my hometown - right in the middle of our old neighborhood downtown when a homeless couple started a fire to keep warm and the entire building went up. My cousin died trying to save homeless people who had already left the building.

One day I was in the studio with my cousin. My dad was on tour at the time, so just for fun I recorded some stuff with my cousin. We were just playing around. After my dad got back, one day he played what we recorded. He heard my part and was like, "Who is that?" My cousin was like, "Uh, that's your son!" So he was like, "That's hot. You wanna make a record?"

If you had a friend who was a tightrope walker, and you were walking down a sidewalk, and he fell, that would be completely unacceptable.

Mitch Hedberg

When I was younger, I wanted to be a vet or a tightrope walker. But I have no sense of balance, and I can't bear animals dying, so I abandoned both ideas.

Georgia May Jagger

If one's life depends on doing something right, as in the case of the tightrope walker, one will practice on a much deeper level.

Kenny Werner

The line between normal and crazy seemed impossibly thin. A person would have to be an expert tightrope walker in order not to fall.

Augusten Burroughs

Once upon a time there was a bear and a bee who lived in a wood and were the best of friends. All summer long the bee collected nectar from morning to night while the bear lay on his back basking in the long grass. When winter came the bear realised he had nothing to eat and thought to himself 'I hope that busy little bee will share some of his honey with me.' But the bee was nowhere to be found - he had died of a stress induced coronary disease.

Banksy

Those who have not been stung will hardly fear a bee the same as those who have.

Sara Sheridan

Any tightrope walker can walk in a straight line and hold a cane at the same time. It's the balancing on the rope at those dizzying heights that they have to practise
