“It isn't so much what's on the table that matters, as what's on the chairs.”
William S. Gilbert
“The Fed chair doesn't matter a lot to the average person in normal times. He matters an awful lot when things aren't going well -- when the financial markets freeze, or there's a 9/11 or Y2K or Iraq war. When people lose confidence, the Fed chairman is vital to restoring confidence and ensuring functioning financial markets and economy.”
Mark Zandi
“Moving between the legs of tables and of chairs, rising or falling, grasping at kisses and toys, advancing boldly, sudden to take alarm, retreating to the corner of arm and knee, eager to be reassured, taking pleasure in the fragrant brilliance of thee.”
T.S. Eliot
“Worrying is like a rocking chair, it gives you something to do, but it gets you nowhere.”
Glenn Turner
“We actually purchased those real tall tables and chairs like you see at Starbucks,”
Dorothy Thompson
“And I think it was a huge mistake to put another chair at the House managers' table for Mr. Starr, and to create sort of a sideshow here which I think runs the risk of causing the Senate, this fragile bipartisanship we've been able to hold together here, you run the risk, I say very sincerely, you run the risk of shattering that, ... Face the Nation.”
Chris Dodd
