John: So, what do you reckon to our new Prime Minister, then? Judy: Oh, I like him. I can't understand why he's not married, though. John: Well, you know the type. He's, uh, married to his job. Either that, or gay as a picnic basket.
Harry: Right, the Christmas party. Not my favorite night of the year, and your unhappy job to organize. Mia: Tell me. Harry: Well, it's basic, really. Find a venue, over-order on the drinks, bulk-buy the guacamole and advise the girls to avoid Kevin ...
The Boss: [after Slevin has just told him he'll take the job killing the Rabbi's son] I knew you had sense. Slevin: Sense is something you have when you have a choice. The Boss: Sometimes. Sometimes it's when you know you don't.
Sulley: Nice job, Mikey. You filled your quota on the first kid of the day. Mike: You know, only someone with great comedic timing could produce this much energy in one shot. Sulley: Uh-huh, and the fact that laughter has ten times the energy of scre...
Bert: It reminds me of me brother. He got a nice cushy job at a watch factory. Uncle Albert: At a watch factory? What does he do? Bert: He stands about all day... and makes faces! Uncle Albert: [laughing hysterically] He makes faces in a watch factor...
Agent Smith: Never send a human to do a machine's job. Agent Brown: If, indeed, the insider has failed, they'll sever the connection as soon as possible. Unless... Agent Jones: ...they're dead. In either case... Agent Smith: ...we have no choice but ...
Michael Bolton: Tom, every week you say you're going to lose your job and you're still here. Tom Smykowski: Not this time. I'll bet I'm the first one laid off! Just the thought of having to go to the state unemployment office and stand in line with t...
OTB Man #1, Tommy: Look, I'm telling you, there's gonna be another war. I mean, those slobs in the Pentagon are gonna be out of job unless they find a new enemy. They got this Saddam character now, and they're going to hit him with all they've got. M...
Fred C. Dobbs: What a town. Tampico. Bob Curtin: You said it, brother. If I could just get me a job that would bring in enough to buy passage, I'd shake it's dust off my feet soon enough, you bet.
Ness: [Ness has just shot a gangster after the Canadian border raid] I had to kill him. Malone: Oh, yeah. He's as dead as Julius Caesar... Would you rather it was you? Ness: No, I would not. Malone: Well, then, you've done your job. Go home and sleep...
My father left us when I was 10, so I had to make enough money for us to be able to live in a house because my brother went in the service during Vietnam and I was sole support of my mother. And she had no skills, really, except to clean other people...
I've always been terrified about not having money. I've been a big saver and a big earner. When I've been out of work, I've always found another job. I never wanted to get into debt, because money was very tight when I was growing up. I never felt de...
If a man has wealth, he has to make a choice, because there is the money heaping up. He can keep it together in a bunch, and then leave it for others to administer after he is dead. Or he can get it into action and have fun, while he is still alive. ...
A woman at the Limited once asked me, 'Why do you work?' She said, 'You made a lot of money as a young man, so why are you still working?' I had never thought about it before. Forced to consider it, I told her, 'You know why? Because I think that if ...
I can see my work as a job. I do it for money. I likely already look forward to the weekend on Thursdays. And I probably will need a hobby as a leveling mechanism. In a career, I'm definitely more engaged. But at the same time, there will be periods ...
The most watched programme on the BBC, after the news, is probably 'Doctor Who.' What has happened is that science fiction has been subsumed into modern literature. There are grandparents out there who speak Klingon, who are quite capable of holding ...
I just feel like people like a little break. Especially at 12:37 at night, you go, like, 'I'm just tired of the snarky right now. I just want to lie down and have somebody make me laugh for an hour. Entertain me, and then I'm going to sleep with a sm...
I was all-state in four sports in New Jersey, but sometimes I couldn't get served at a restaurant two blocks from my high school. There were no job opportunities then... the only thing a black youth could aspire to be was a bellboy or a pullman or an...
85% of all video we watch is pre-recorded, so you can set your system to download it all the time. You're still going to need live television for certain things - like news, sporting events and emergencies - but increasingly it is going to be almost ...
When I was a child I used to read books by Gerald Durrell, who founded Jersey Zoo. He had a job collecting animals for zoos and for a long time that is what I wanted to do. Later when I was a teenager I had a fantastic English teacher called Mrs. Sta...
And so when I moved to IBM, I moved because I thought I could apply technology. I didn't actually have to do my engineer - I was an electrical engineer, but I could apply it. And that was when I changed. And when I got there, though, I have to say, a...
