Something is going to have to give because, if it doesn't, not only will we get Jacob Rees-Mogg as our prime minister, we will get a devastating hard Brexit which will cause huge damage to our economy for generations to come. And I am not prepared to sit by any longer and put up with this nonsense.

Anna Soubry

Sometimes the world seems like a big hole. You spend all your life shouting down it and all you hear are echoes of some idiot yelling nonsense down a hole.

Adam Duritz

Time Life Your

There was kind of a no-nonsense parenting style that my parents had that was true of the time. Everything now... there are books, and there are websites, and there are blogs, and you're reading, and there's research. We're such an interconnected world now, and half the stuff they did was pretty terrible, but we somehow turned out fine.

Adam F. Goldberg

Time Parenting You

Miss Rice talks very tough. We have gotten used to this nonsense. Miss Rice is a bit emotional about this, and we predicted that she would have a more emotional approach to this.

Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani

Would Very Used

No. 1, Halliburton. Certainly, if they've overcharged they should be whacked and whacked good, but the idea that the vice president somehow is involved in this, whether they got contracts because of him, that's nonsense.

Al D'Amato

Good Whether Whack

My dad was a slightly stricter version of Richard Dawkins. The worldview was that there are idiots out there who believe in Santa Claus and fairies and magic and elves, and we're not joining that nonsense.

Alain de Botton

Worldview World Who

Imagine maintaining 70 brands in a digital world - it is a nonsense. It is better to focus on a fewer, more distinct brands.

Alain Dehaze

Heroism on command, senseless violence, and all the loathsome nonsense that goes by the name of patriotism - how passionately I hate them!

Albert Einstein

Patriotism Violence Trio

They keep telling us that in war truth is the first casualty, which is nonsense since it implies that in times of peace truth stays out of the sick bay or the graveyard.

Alexander Cockburn

War Truth Time

Most science fiction, quite frankly, is silly nonsense.

Alfred Bester

Science T Silly

The paleo diet is utter nonsense - it is such pseudoscience.

Alice Roberts

Science Diet Utter

I'm a hip-hop dancer, but when I'm in my room it turns into this lyrical nonsense, and I listen to Phil Wickham and India Arie, who has the most precious songs.

Alyson Stoner

Who Us Turns

At 50 you're more confident, more comfortable in your skin and you don't put up with nonsense, especially from men.

Amanda Donohoe

Men Your You

The thing that still somehow surprises me, and I have come to this realization over and over again, is this nonsense that gets peddled regarding, 'Just work really hard, be really smart, do the right thing, and you'll get rewarded.' No, you don't. You don't get rewarded for those things in this society.

Ana Kasparian

Work War Society

I wish I'd walked out of 'The Tourist' with Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp. I said to the missus after two minutes, 'He's her husband.' An hour and a half's worth of nonsense later, the big twist at the end is... he's her husband.

Andrew Flintoff

Worth Wit Wish

Now, I have a confession to make. I hate warm-ups with a passion. Worst part of the whole day. Nonsense, they are.

Andrew Flintoff

If you're a preacher, you talk for a living, so even if you don't make sense, you learn to make nonsense eloquently.

Andrew Young

You Talk T

The cliche that comics always use is that whatever is happening in the news is 'the gift that keeps on giving.' I always thought that was a bunch of nonsense.

Andy Kindler

Whatever Ways Way

It is nonsense to say that Germans are unable to change.

Angela Merkel

Change Unable UN

If I can, in any way, give people the courage to say, 'Actually, no, the nonsense stops right here,' then I want to be a part of doing that. Especially if that means that our folks will be more free.

Angela Rye

Usually the nonsense liberals spout is kind of cute, but in wartime their instinctive idiocy is life-threatening.

Ann Coulter

It would be nonsense to try to suggest that somebody who tried to rouse 2,000 people to their feet - which is what I used to do at conference - doesn't have any element of exhibitionism about them.

Ann Widdecombe

Something is going to have to give because, if it doesn't, not only will we get Jacob Rees-Mogg as our prime minister, we will get a devastating hard Brexit which will cause huge damage to our economy for generations to come. And I am not prepared to sit by any longer and put up with this nonsense.

Anna Soubry

It's a great mistake, I think, to put children off with falsehoods and nonsense, when their growing powers of observation and discrimination excite in them a desire to know about things.

Anne Sullivan

I think the must-have power qualities for a female or male power leader are really the ability to focus, to work hard, to be extremely goal oriented and to not let the noise and the nonsense interfere with your mission - what you really feel you want to do with your career and your life.

Anne Sweeney

I don't have much patience for people who are self-conscious about the act of eating, and it irritates me when someone denies themselves the pleasure of a bloody hunk of steak or a pungent French cheese because of some outdated nonsense about what's appropriate or attractive.

Anthony Bourdain

A lot of the fun lies in trying to penetrate the mystery; and this is best done by saying over the lines to yourself again and again, till they pass through the stage of sounding like nonsense, and finally return to a full sense that had at first escaped notice.

Anthony Hecht

I have no interest in Shakespeare and all that British nonsense... I just wanted to get famous and all the rest is hogwash.

Anthony Hopkins

I don't like the Samba; it's nonsense. With a lot of these Latin dances I can't really understand what they're all about. I like the Rumba and the Paso Doble but the others I could take or leave.

Anton du Beke

It is simple nonsense to speak of the fixed tempo of any particular vocal phrase. Each voice has its peculiarities.

Anton Seidl

The biggest problem almost all comics face is not piracy or demographics or any of that nonsense: it's obscurity.

Antony Johnston

When you come from within the industry, you are better prepared for the industry. For example, you see your family deal with the nonsense that is written in the papers, or the highs and lows of a hit and a flop.

Arjun Kapoor

My father was a no-nonsense, dedicated, and focused minister, and there was usually a sermon he needed to prepare for or a Scripture he needed to study, and that always came first.

Arsenio Hall

The Roosevelt enactment of Social Security was a moral revolution in our country: We were assured that we would never reach the very depths of poverty. And to be told, that we are now going to gamble it, on Wall Street, is nonsense!

Arthur Hertzberg

It is all nonsense, to be sure; and so much the greater nonsense inasmuch as the true interpretation of many dreams - not by any means of all dreams - moves, it may be said, in the opposite direction to the method of psycho-analysis.

Arthur Machen

There's a feeling that strength is determined by the size of a union. That clearly is nonsense.

Arthur Scargill

In South Africa, success never presented the problems that it presents in New York. In New York, if you happen to be the flavor of the month, a lot of nonsense comes with it into your life.

Athol Fugard

Happy the boy whose mother is tired of talking nonsense to him before he is old enough to know the sense of it.

Augustus Hare

In 1993, 89 of the 'Fortune' top 100 companies were administering the Myers-Briggs test to their employees. The philosophy behind personality tests is that they don't want you to be in the wrong kind of job. The tests have been completely exposed as nonsense.

Barbara Ehrenreich

One thing I detest most about the financial press is the lack of accountability. All sorts of nonsense is said without penalty.

Barry Ritholtz

You want less of the annoying nonsense that interferes with your portfolios and more of the significant data that allow you to become a less distracted, more purposeful investor.

Barry Ritholtz

I come from a line of self-motivated, determined folk - not grand, not high society, but no-nonsense, family-minded go-getters.

Bear Grylls

There are a lot of laws from Europe about employing people which are absolute nonsense.

Ben Elliot

In life, you don't have a level of confrontation and the nonsense you run into when you're a CEO. CEOs aren't born.

Ben Horowitz

The old idea of a composer suddenly having a terrific idea and sitting up all night to write it is nonsense. Nighttime is for sleeping.

Benjamin Britten

Nine-tenths of the existing books are nonsense and the clever books are the refutation of that nonsense.

Benjamin Disraeli

There's this idea supposedly that we preachers are supposed to walk about with sandals and ride bicycles. That's nonsense.

Benny Hinn

People used to believe only a professional could do tiling or install track lighting. That's utter nonsense.

Bernard Marcus

'Dreamers' was because I really wanted to go back after I heard so much nonsense about '68. I wanted to go back to what for me was '68, when young people thought that they could change the world.

Bernardo Bertolucci

Everyone says you've got to do a foundation and legal structure to finance social change. What nonsense!

Bill Drayton

Whenever anyone challenges anything, the powers that be try to paint them as extremists or radicals or whatever. And I think that's actually nonsense.

Bill McKibben
