We have to believe that everything has a cause, as the spider spins its web in order to catch flies. But it does this before it knows there are such things as flies.

Georg C. Lichtenberg

Time flies. Time flies faster every year. Time flies whether you're having fun or not, whether you're living your life big or small, whether you surround yourself with fear or laughter.

Claire Cook

Flies? Flies? Poor puny things. Who wants to eat flies?

Dwight Frye

I don't know what's wrong with me. When I was a girl they had this aviary in one of my foster homes and I'd go in when no one was looking and put out watermelon rinds to feed the flies. There were all these flies that would have starved if I hadn't, and I'm not even wild about flies. They say it makes you a gentler person if you don't eat meat. But wasn't Hitler a vegetarian?

Susan Strasberg

Ill news is wing'd with fate, and flies apace.

John Dryden

On who the flies landed without being chased away by that person, was on her way to death - this was one of the unmistakeable signs. From that time on, I think, dates my obsession with flies. In times of peace, when we all lied still, I made sure to sneak close up to my mother, watching very carefully that no fly would land on her, - I waved my hat over her body, flies don't like wind and movement.

Jeroen Brouwers

But meanwhile time flies; it flies never to be regained.

Virgil

Groucho Marx

Mitch Albom

I'd just say the flies get bigger in the summertime. I guess the flies are buzzing.

Fred Thompson

He would say that God had given him a tail to keep the flies off, but that he would sooner have had no tail and no flies.

George Orwell

Time flies like an arrow - but fruit flies like a banana.

Terry Wogan

Time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana

Groucho Marx

I like football. It's fun winning the ball from someone. It's fun shooting at goal. It's fun hitting a ball over 60 metres that arrives. It's like in golf: if you hit a ball, and it flies and flies and flies, you enjoy it.

Lothar Matthaus

Only flies have true halteres. In fact, the scientific term for flies, 'diptera,' means 'two wings.' Most insects, including bees, have two pairs of wings for a total of four. In flies, the hindwing pairs have been transformed through evolution into the halteres.
