“I shall be so brief that I have already finished”
Salvador Dalí
“I'll be briefing the administration as soon as we leave North Korea, ... You can't brief them from North Korea because either calls are monitored or the communication system's not the best. So, the moment we're back on our Air Force plane which has telephones and fax and Internet capabilities, that's when I'll most likely brief him, the moment we leave. It's very hard to do it in country.”
Bill Richardson
“Therefore, since brevity is the soul of wit, And tediousness the limbs and outward flourishes, I will be brief”
William Shakespeare
“There is a brief moment when all there is in a man's mind and soul and spirit is reflected through his eyes, his hands, his attitude. This is the moment to record.”
Yousuf Karsh
“The White House is giving George W. Bush intelligence briefings. You know, some of these jokes just write themselves.”
David Letterman
“This is going to be like the 'Bridges of Madison Avenue', a very brief affair I'll write about in sappy letters to my grandchildren.”
Sarah Jessica Parker
“The wisdom of nations lies in their proverbs, which are brief and pithy. Collect and learn them; they are notable measures of directions for human life; you have much in little; they save time in speaking; and upon occasion may be the fullest and safest answer.”
William Penn
