Few of us doubt that stealing is wrong, especially from the poor. But the accusation of 'cultural appropriation' is overwhelmingly being used as an objection to syncretism - the mixing of different thoughts, religions, cultures, and ethnicities that often ends up creating entirely new ones.

Bari Weiss

I don't remember ever stealing things, but I suppose I was endlessly borrowing money off people.

A. A. Gill

Me and my partners had been stealing cars for a while.

Aaron Neville

I write by stealing time. The hours in the day have never felt as if they belonged to me. The greatest number has belonged to my day job as a physician and professor of medicine - eight to 12 hours, and even more in the early days.

Abraham Verghese

I don't know if that's a year's bad luck, or if that's how it works. But stealing a Christmas tree - that can't be a good thing, karma-wise.

Adrian McKinty

Mostly I've just been stealing little moments for myself in order to write - in the bathroom at a hotel, or just slipping away for a half an hour. Amidst all of the touring, life has been happening.

Adrianne Lenker

Living in Manhattan opened me to whole new sets of things to envy, study, gather and imagine stealing. A full-size 1809 German harp, beautifully painted with three goddesses, covered in a pea-green coat of great silvery refinement: mine for $180. Though all its strings were broken, its beauty let it claim a quarter of my one - bedroom.

Allan Gurganus

As an actor, it's my job to make everything interesting and exciting and new. If I'm not doing my job well, then I'm stealing.

Allison Mack

Before Katrina, you didn't see criticism of the Bush administration in the media. Here they are, stealing elections, enacting illegal wars, huge crimes against humanity and democracy, and you didn't even see criticism. It wasn't until Katrina that people started to come down on them.

Ani DiFranco

Confiscatory taxation enforced by threat of imprisonment is 'stealing,' a practice strongly frowned upon by our Creator.

Ann Coulter

I know imitation is the highest form of flattery, but stealing one's identity is totally different.

AnnaLynne McCord

Normally, when I'm not performing or stealing, I second-guess myself; I have doubts.

Apollo Robbins

Growing up in a small town of two thousand people, there wasn't too many ways to get in trouble. But I found some. We got caught stealing green plums from this old lady's yard.

Archie Manning

I don't buy these rag magazines that feed off of stolen, you know, press. They're basically stealing someone's image in order to make money for themselves... They wait at the end of my street in their cars. Every time I exit my home, I have company.

Ashton Kutcher

Few of us doubt that stealing is wrong, especially from the poor. But the accusation of 'cultural appropriation' is overwhelmingly being used as an objection to syncretism - the mixing of different thoughts, religions, cultures, and ethnicities that often ends up creating entirely new ones.

Bari Weiss

I went to jail at 16 for stealing tires off Cadillacs. When I got out I said, Never again.

Barry White

Ronda Rousey changing the game for MMA, you know? Dana White said he'd never have a girl in the Octagon. Ronda Rousey comes along, and she's the main event any time she's on. The women, I feel, in the UFC are stealing the show.

Becky Lynch

My friends were stealing cars and shoplifting. I was never into that but I was cheeky. I enjoyed making people laugh.

Ben Eine

There's no shame in stealing - any actor who says he doesn't is lying. You steal from everything.

Benedict Cumberbatch

So many people are stealing Bikram Yoga. It's like you're practicing medicine, but you're not a doctor.

Bikram Choudhury

Stealing someone's signals was a part of the game and everybody attempted to do that. We had people that always tried to steal signals.
