Had Enough Quotes - Page 10

• When in still air and still in summertime
  A leaf has had enough of this, it seems
  To make up its mind to go; fine as a sage
  Its drifting in detachment down the road.

• It happened while I was filming “Water for Elephants in which my partner is Reese Witherspoon. We had a scene with elephants but there were so many paparazzi around that it was scaring the animals and it was impossible to film.

• Fashion is not style. Nay, we can say more: Fashion is instead of style. Style is an idiom springing spontaneously from the personality but deliberately maintained. If you have no personality, you may be able to save your face and, possibly, your entire anatomy by following the current fashion, but all we shall know about you, when we see you coming down the street, is that you had enough money to buy a glossy magazine and were sufficiently cunning to work out the cut of the garments shown therein.

• I started learning my lessons in Abbot Texas, where I was born in 1933. My sister Bobbie and I were raised by our grandparents [...] We never had enough money, and Bobbie and I started working at an early age to help the family get by. That hard work included picking cotton. [...] Picking cotton is hard and painful work, and the most lasting lesson I learned in the fields was that I didn't want to spend my life picking cotton.

• I gladly, I voluntarily gave up the kind of commercial film career I had going as soon as I had enough money to finance my own films.

Of course, I consider myself unbelievably fortunate, and I'm pretty content with my life.
