One of the first houses we lived in was like out of a fairy story. We had a stream that ran through our garden, and we played with the ducks - we locked them in my mum's office, and they pooed everywhere. It was crazy, picking blackberries and mushrooms, rabbits running through your legs.

I'm crazy about ducks and swans and geese, so I don't eat foie gras. I try to eat organic.

The English eat all sorts of birds - pigeons, ducks, sparrows - but if you tell them you eat puffin, you might as well come from Mars.

You Well Them

I've always looked upon the Ducks as caricature human beings. Perhaps I've been years writing in that middle world that J.R.R. Tolkien describes, and never knew it.

Carl Barks

The one complaint about the Internet that I wholeheartedly endorse is that most of these tools have been designed to peck at us like ducks: 'Hey, there's a new reply to your comment! Come look at it!'

Clive Thompson

Once we played for the Princess of Monaco in Paris. We were the biggest ducks ever, wearing rented tuxedos. We trashed the party, took a bunch of girls and champagne in limos underneath the Eiffel Tower, and set up an acoustic show. It was like a Hilary Duff movie.

Conrad Sewell

I do have my ducks in line if I want to do it, but I'd love to see the Republicans pick somebody that was going to win and take over this country and frankly, to use the expression, 'Make America great again.'

Donald Trump

Love Great Win

If I think too much about all of those Chinese factories where all the stuff in a Wal-Mart is made, I get that woozy feeling you get when you see ducks covered in crude oil.

Douglas Coupland

Art You Woo

'Daredevil' is incredible, but I mean, 'The Mighty Ducks' put me in a conversation that I wasn't in before. I feel like I owe a lot of my career to being in those movies.

Elden Henson

Movies Car Those

What's funny is I still, more than anything, get recognized for 'The Mighty Ducks.' I love it. When I was younger, I would get embarrassed. I played sports growing up, and I'd be playing baseball, and the other team would be quacking at me and stuff.

Elden Henson

Sports Love Funny

When I was a kid, I was in all 'The Mighty Ducks' movies, and that sort of created this weird thing when I was very young. And luckily, I had a lot of really good friends and family that kept me from, I guess, going down a more negative path that actors can go down.

Elden Henson

Movies Good Family

I can do a really good animal impression! I'm great at ducks, cats, dogs, and occasionally dolphins.

One of the first houses we lived in was like out of a fairy story. We had a stream that ran through our garden, and we played with the ducks - we locked them in my mum's office, and they pooed everywhere. It was crazy, picking blackberries and mushrooms, rabbits running through your legs.

Dealing with network executives is like being nibbled to death by ducks.

I might do my own independent film, that my husband wrote for me, if all the ducks are in a row.

Erica Durance

Wrote Us T

There are no Rabbits in the north-west. This statement, far from final, is practically true today, but I saw plenty of Lynxes, and one cannot write of ducks without mentioning water.

Ernest Thompson Seton

I really hate rubber ducks, actually.

Florentijn Hofman

T Rubber Really

I used to get a lot of rubber ducks on my birthdays as presents because, you know, I make rubber ducks. But then I get the ugliest ones with a neck, ugly colors, and devil ears. I don't like those.

Florentijn Hofman

Birthday You Wit

Sometimes I'll go by and there are a couple of swans, the next day it's a few ducks. I'd like to stop there every day for a year and capture how it changes, then put it all together to create an incredible image of a traditional English scene.

Graeme Le Saux

Time Change Age

I've spent so many years talking about lame ducks in the White House and Congress, and it's never occurred to me to find out what the heck it means. It turns out it's an old English hunting term - something about firing at a duck without quite killing it. In any case, the hobbled duck limps on, at a distinct disadvantage.

Gwen Ifill

Sad Age Years

For me, it's just a pleasure to be out in the community wearing my Ducks logo on shirts and hats and so forth in representing the team.

Henry Samueli

Wearing Wear Us

Just getting young kids excited about hockey, then they'll want to skate, they'll want to start joining junior leagues, they'll want to play in high school, etc., so we're trying to expand at all levels. That's good for the sport, and it's good for the Ducks long term.

Henry Samueli

Even Sachin used to get ducks during his career. There are ups and downs in every athlete's career.

Hima Das

I'm not someone who wears shades all the time and ducks into a darkened car in case I'm recognized - that would be absolute misery.

Ian Mckellen

I spent a lot of time on farms when I was growing up, and I've been obsessed with the practical logic of farmyards - the turning radius of tractors, where the chickens and ducks might go. It's not a place where stand-alone aesthetic decisions make a lot of sense.

Jaquelin T. Robertson

I've always said the key to killing a lot of mallards if you live on the East Coast is to move west. The No. 1 rule in duck hunting is to go where the ducks are.

Jase Robertson

Go to where the ducks are. Forget the duck calls. If you go where the ducks are coming, you're going to shoot more ducks.

Jase Robertson

We only call at ducks when their rear ends are towards us. If I'm looking at you and you call my name, then I know where the sound came from. But if you had your back to me and I holler and you turn around, you would assume somebody hollered. You want your decoys to represent the sound that you're making.

Jase Robertson

I grew up in the English countryside, raising ducks and chickens.

Jessica Henwick

Profit is the sole criterion used by the establishment to evaluate economic activity. From the rat race to lame ducks. The vocabulary in vogue is a give-away. It's more reminiscent of a human menagerie than human society.

Jimmy Reid

Our main deal is pastured livestock. So we have beef cattle, pigs, turkeys, laying chickens, meat chickens, rabbit, lamb and ducks - egg-layer ducks.

Joel Salatin

If it's well written and well directed and you've got good actors to work with, acting is easy. But making sure all the ducks are in a row is the hard part. It's very rare.

John Lithgow

I've got eighteen-year-old twins that need to go to college, so there's still a financial issue, but I could retire tomorrow and just count ducks by the side of the lake, and that would be just fine by me. I'm not a high-energy guy.

Jonathan Banks

I'm sorry for the ducks; I love foie gras.

Jose Andres

Nobody criticizes the 'Mighty Ducks' trilogy and gets away with it. Nobody!

Joshua Jackson

'Mighty Ducks' was a great experience, and I don't shy away from that.

Jussie Smollett

I will be unhappy if RDA ducks me. I will be very unhappy.

Kamaru Usman

People eat duck and you think, well, we've got loads of chickens, leave the ducks alone!

Karl Pilkington

To produce foie gras, ducks and geese are force-fed enormous amounts of grain and fat, which causes their livers to swell to many times the normal size.

Kate Winslet

Foie gras is sold as an expensive delicacy in some restaurants and shops. But no one pays a higher price for foie gras than the ducks and geese who are abused and killed to make it.

Kate Winslet

The perfect date is real simple. I wanna just spend a nice casual day walking in the park, playing on the swings... throwing bread crumbs to the ducks, really just chilling and getting to know each other and connecting with the real woman.

Lamman Rucker

We had our wheat. We made our own olive oil. We made our wine. We had chickens, ducks; we had sheep, cows, milk. So I was raised in a very simple situation but understanding really food from the ground... the essence of food and the flavors. And those memories I took with me, and I think that they lingered on.

Lidia Bastianich

Women who start out as ugly ducklings don't become beautiful swans. What they mainly become is confident ducks. They take charge of their lives.

Maeve Binchy

I don't have ugly ducklings turning into swans in my stories. I have ugly ducklings turn into confident ducks.

Maeve Binchy

My dad used to hunt ducks, and my mom would put them in the pot. We lived really modestly. We had very little money.

Megan Fox

If you know anything about ducks, you know a baby duck will imprint itself on you. It misses its mother.

Michael Leunig

I had a few ducks as a kid.

Michael Leunig

Fractional reserve banks are sitting ducks and are always subject to contraction. When the banks' state of inherent bankruptcy is discovered, for example, people will tend to cash in their deposits, and the contractionary, deflationary pressure could be severe.

Murray Rothbard

I picked ducks in a tub in my dorm room. I'd hang deer in the doorway between the bedroom and the little living room in our little apartment there, and I'd skin my deer, and all the guts would go in the tub, and I'd sneak them out so my fellow students on both sides wouldn't see all that, you know. I'd clean fish up there and all.

Phil Robertson

If your woman picks your ducks, and she cooks and carries her Bible... now there's the complete package of womanhood.

Phil Robertson

We're trying to infuse a little good into the American culture. Love God, love your neighbor, hunt ducks. Raise your kids, make them behave, love them. I don't see the down side to that.
