Sayings About Pound Sterling

#1. In the seventeenth century the pound sterling was divided into twenty shillings (shortened to s.), and a shilling was divided into twelve pennies, or pence (shortened to d.). So an amount might be expressed as £2 10s 6d, or £2/10/6d.

#2. It seems like cloud cuckoo land. If anyone is suggesting that I would go to Parliament and suggest the abolition of the Pound Sterling - no! We have made it quite clear that we will not have a single currency imposed upon us.

Margaret Thatcher

#3. The "Highway 61" album [of Bob Dylan] was produced by Bob Johnston if I'm not incorrect. And Bob Johnston was an entirely different producer than Tom Wilson. Tom Wilson had produced jazz records and was a Harvard educated.

Al Kooper

#4. I looked at his face, unsure of how many more of his smiles I'd have.

#5. I believe profoundly in the possibilities of democracy, but democracy needs to be emancipated from capitalism. As long as we inhabit a capitalist democracy, a future of racial equality, gender equality, economic equality will elude us.

Angela Davis

#6. You have girls that sing about guys ain't paying their bills and men are this and men are that and I write about women who want to go out for free, they don't want to pay for the dinner, they try to get over, they wanna leave.

Kool Keith

#7. I'm still an angry dude. I'm just older. I still push the band to be heavy and dark-that's always been my role.

Kim Thayil

#8. I do myself a greater injury in lying than I do him of whom I tell a lie.

Michel De Montaigne

#9. It's not good enough to imitate the models proposed for us that are answers to circumstances other than our own. It isn't even enough to discover who we are. We have to invent ourselves.

Rosario Castellanos

#10. Houses, like faces, hide all kinds of memories.
