Matt Taibbi

When you get down to it, unschooling is really just a fancy term for 'life' or 'growing up uninstitutionalized'.

Grace Llewellyn

If you do it first class and you don't compromise values, and you don't compromise quality, and you don't compromise service, and you don't compromise cleanliness, then everybody else who is the competitor has got to play catch-up.

Ray Kroc

I said, 'What I'm going to do is dress as plain as humanly possible.' I'm not going to wear anything fancy, I'm not going to have fancy music, I'm not going to have fancy pyro - I'm literally just going to be a dude walking into the ring. I'm going to look like I just got off work from a construction site, and I am now punching you in the face.

Dean Ambrose

Lauryn Hill

I quite fancy having a hover car, but I don't fancy everyone having one. Because I feel like I spend quite a lot of time stuck in traffic on the 405 but if everybody had one then they'd be scared and we'd crash, but if it was just me, then I think I would zoom home quite fast. I also quite fancy a phone attached to my hand but then I don't know if I fancy it being stuck to my body.

Kate Beckinsale

Without compromise repression would be defeated. Just as some cancers feed on hormones, compromise becomes the hormone of oppression.

Harry Belafonte

The 'morality of compromise' sounds contradictory. Compromise is usually a sign of weakness, or an admission of defeat. Strong men don't compromise, it is said, and principles should never be compromised.

Andrew Carnegie

The fancy term for what America has squandered in the past year and a half or so is legitimacy.

Todd Gitlin

And "classically not beautiful" is a fancy term for saying ugly. And denouncing you. And erasing you.

Viola Davis

Never compromise your principles, even if it leads to difficulties in the short term.

Alan Casden

Sometimes you have to gag on fancy before you can appreciate plain, th' way I see it. For too many years, I ate fancy, I dressed fancy, I talked fancy. A while back, I decided to start talkin' th' way I was raised t' talk, and for th' first time in forty years, I can understand what I'm sayin'.

Jan Karon

Modern man creates fancy cars while losing the sacredness of his feet and lungs.
