Moment Quotes

• Sometimes I feel like my brain’s going to come out of my ears, and occasionally I get really dizzy (especially after 'Is It Any Wonder?' and 'Again And Again') and I can't hardly stand up straight on stage!

• Public hangings are teaching moments. Every company has to do it. A teaching moment is worth a thousand CEO speeches.

• Jack? . . . No, there is very little music in the name Jack, if any at all, indeed. It does not thrill. It produces absolutely no vibrations . . .

She would probably never be allowed to know the entrancing pleasure of a single moment’s solitude. The only really safe name is Ernest.

That was my introduction.
