I've always had a great fondness for English detective fiction such as Agatha Christie and Dorothy Sayers.

Kazuo Ishiguro

I absolutely adore classic crime and read a huge amount as a teen - Agatha Christie, Dorothy L. Sayers, Sherlock Holmes, Josephine Tey, and many more.

Ruth Ware

Dorothy L. Sayers is absolutely my favorite The reason she stands above Agatha Christie, Ngaio Marsh, and Margery Allingham is because she was so subtly aware of the lot and trials of women of her decade.

Lucy Worsley

I like sayers of no better than I like sayers of yes.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

An audience is going to be able to find a little bit of Dorothy in themselves and relate to this woman.: roles like Dorothy Day are so rare in Hollywood.

Moira Kelly

Criticism is infested with the cant of materialism, which assumes that manual skill and activity is the first merit of all men, and disparages such as say and do not, overlooking the fact, that some men, namely, poets, are natural sayers, sent into the world to the end of expression, and confounds them with those whose province is action, but who quit to imitate the sayers.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

I started as a fairy on the 'Dorothy the Dinosaur Show.' That was mainly just a national tour that featured Dorothy the Dinosaur.

Emma Watkins

Hi," Kami said to Dorothy, the head librarian…"Can you tell me where I could find the books on Satanism?" Twenty minutes later, she had Dorothy convinced that it was for a school project, and she really did not have to telephone Kami's parents.

Sarah Rees Brennan

To me, I'm sort of like Dorothy in 'The Wiz.' It kind of parallels my life. It's a story that reminds me... that home is where the love is. So if I go to Tampa or St. Pete, and I feel the love there, that's my home. That's where the love is.

Kenny Leon

I absolutely love Dorothy Dunnett's 'House of Niccolo' series and the 'Lymond Chronicles.' They are so detailed.

Deborah Harkness

I'd like to think every director I've worked with has fallen in love with me, I know Dorothy Arzner did.

Joan Crawford

I learn through listening and watching other performers that are very good, like Denise Chávez, Dorothy Allison.

Sandra Cisneros

Surround yourself with "yay-sayers" not "naysayers."

Lynn Robinson

One eye witness is better than ten hear sayers.

Plautus

I think she [Rosalind Franklin] was a good experimentalist but certainly not of the first rank. She was simply not in the same class as Eigen or Bragg or Pauling, nor was she as good as Dorothy Hodgkin. She did not even select DNA to study. It was given to her. Her theoretical crystallography was very average.

Francis Crick

Christ said: Blessed are the peace-makers, not blessed are the peace-sayers. If the world fell into the hands of totalitarian factions, there is still the possibility that they might fight amongst themselves. Surrender to them would not encourage the kingdom of peace and love - and those that desire it, or with passionate intensity permit it, know not what they do.
