You can't have a tin can tied to your tail and go through life pretending it isn't there.

There is cruelty in divorce. There is cruelty in forced or unfortunate marriage. We will continue to cry at weddings because we know how bittersweet, how fragile is the truth. We will always need legal divorce just as an emergency escape hatch is crucial in every submarine. No sense, however, in denying that after every divorce someone will be running like a cat, tin cans tied to its tail: spooked and slowed down.

This morning I lay in the bathtub thinking how wonderful it would be if I had a dog like Rin Tin Tin. I'd call him Rin Tin Tin too, and I'd take him to school with me, where he could stay in the janitor's room or by the bicycle racks when the weather was good.

I'm confused about who the news belongs to. I always have it in my head that if your name's in the news, then the news should be paying you. Because it's your news and they're taking it and selling it as their product. ...If people didn't give the news their news, and if everybody kept their news to themselves, the news wouldn't have any news.

Andy Warhol

In 1923 I was the No. 1 box office star. A year later it was Rin Tin Tin.

Jackie Coogan

Poetry is a theorem of a yellow-silk handkerchief knotted with riddles, sealed in a balloon tied to the tail of a kite flying in a white wind against a blue sky in spring.

Carl Sandburg

I see myself in the mold of Rin Tin Tin. It didn't go to his head either.

Al Gore

I made a tin man costume with tin foil and furnace parts because I thought it would help me be more heartless.

Marcel Dzama

What was the name of that dog on 'Rin Tin Tin'?

Mickey Rivers

What was the name of that dog on "Rin Tin Tin"?

Mickey Rivers

The rage is still there but I found the right kind of channel, because it's tied to a love, it's tied to a struggle for justice. And most importantly, for me, it's tied to a recognition that I am a cracked vessel.

Cornel West
