10 Gracie Allen Quotes to Commemorate the Birth of an American Comedian
July 26th is the day to commemorate Gracie Allen's birthday, and what better way to do it than with some famous Gracie Allen quotes? Of course, we can't be entirely sure when Gracie's birthday was. After all, she would never be forthcoming with it no matter who asked her and it's speculated that even her own husband didn't know exactly when she was born. Of course, it really doesn't matter. Regardless of the exact date, Gracie Allen was one of the most talented women to grace this earth. Here are ten quotes to celebrate that fact.
1. "When I was born I was so surprised I didn't talk for a year and a half. "
2. "Smartness runs in my family. When I went to school I was so smart my teacher was in my class for five years."
3. "Brains, integrity, and force may be all very well, but what you need today is Charm. Go ahead and work on your economic programs if you want to, I'll develop my radio personality."
4. "I read a book twice as fast as anybody else. First, I read the beginning, and then I read the ending, and then I start in the middle and read toward whatever end I like best."
5. "My husband will never chase another woman. He's too fine, too decent, too old."
6. "This used to be a government of checks and balances. Now it's all checks and no balances."
7. "A platform is something a candidate stands for and the voters fall for."
8. "I often put boiling water in the freezer. Then whenever I need boiling water, I simply defrost it."
9. "There's so much good in the worst of us, and so many of the worst of us get the best of us, that the rest of us aren't even worth talking about."
10. "They laughed at Joan of Arc, but she went right ahead and built it."
It's not hard to see why comedian George Burns fell in love with her. Charming, witty, intelligent - the list of this woman's attributes could go on forever. We lost a treasure when she passed away. No one can quite deny that she was one of the most entertaining individuals of all time. As the anniversary of her birth (or what we can best guess is the anniversary of her birth) approaches let's celebrate it with these ten Gracie Allen quotes.

Today and Tomorrow: Commemorative Edition of Ford's 1926 Classic $48.09 Winner of the 2003 Shingo Prize Henry Ford is the man who doubled wages, cut the price of a car in half, and produced over 2 million units a year. Time has not diminished the progressiveness of his business philosophy, or his profound influence on worldwide industry. The modern printing of Today and Tomorrow features an introduction by James J. Padilla, Group Vice President, Ford North America. It also includes an enhanced selection of photos illustrating the processes and facilities Ford covers in the text. Taiichi Ohno acknowledged that a key stimulus to JIT was his close reading of this book. Today, these same ideas are re-emerging to revitalize American industry in new ways. I, for one, am in awe of Ford's greatness. I believe Ford was a born rationalist -- and I feel more so every time I read his writings. He had a deliberate and scientific way of thinking about industry in America. For example, on the issues of standardization and the nature of waste in business, Ford's perception of things was orthodox and universal. - Taiichi Ohno |
