“Early risers are conceited in the morning and stupid in the afternoon”
Rose Henniker Heaton
“Rise early. It is the early bird that catches the worm. Don't be fooled by this absurd saw; I once knew a man who tried it. He got up at sunrise and a horse bit him.”
Mark Twain
“[Verdine White would soar aloft on wires. Johnson's drum kit was welded to a riser which rotated through 360 degrees with him still flailing away- a stunt the band devised after watching Keith Emerson of Emerson, Lake and Palmer spin his piano.] I had a lot of fun doing it, ... Never got sick. And I'd do it again.”
Ralph Johnson
“Talent is God given. Be humble. Fame is man-given. Be grateful. Conceit is self-given. Be careful.”
John Wooden
“Conceit is God's gift to little men”
Bruce Barton
“Woman's dearest delight is to wound Man's self-conceit, though Man's dearest delight is to gratify hers”
George Bernard Shaw
“The smaller the mind the greater the conceit”
Aesop
