I think it took me half a page of ‘Wolf Hall’ to think: ‘This is the novel I should have been writing all along.’ – Hilary Mantel
I grew up in Los Angeles, and I was always fascinated by the La Brea Tar Pits. Right in the middle of the city, in an area called the Miracle Mile, for crying out loud, we have these eldritch ponds of dark, bubbling goo. And down in the muck, there’re all these amazing fossils: mammoth and saber tooth cat and dire wolf. – Greg van Eekhout
Susan, an only child who never had any roots, and I, a lone wolf who got married 20 years to late, were adopted by the kids as much as they were by us. – Harpo Marx
‘Show up at the desk’ is one of the first rules of writing, but for ‘Wolf Hall’ I was about 30 years late. – Hilary Mantel
There is a very real danger that financial regulation will become a wolf in sheep’s clothing. – Henry Paulson
‘Wolf Hall’ attempts to duplicate not the historian’s chronology but the way memory works: in leaps, loops, flashes. – Hilary Mantel
Researching ‘Lone Wolf,’ I was amazed at how thoughtful and intelligent these animals are. There has never been a documented attack against a human by a wolf that wasn’t provoked by the human. – Jodi Picoult
A gang is the same as a wolf pack; gang members do not use their energies in friendship with one another, for they do not know what friendship is. If they are united, it is by the common bond of a desire to attack their world. – Haniel Long
On one level, of course, the notion of judging films or books or music against each other is completely ridiculous. Who’s to say ’12 Years A Slave’ is a better film than ‘The Wolf of Wall Street’? Or that one album in a certain genre is better than another in a completely different genre? – John Niven
My influences were the riff-based blues coming from Chicago in the Fifties – Muddy Waters, Howlin’ Wolf and Billy Boy Arnold records. – Jimmy Page
What had brought me to New York in the autumn of 1972 was a letter of recommendation written by Norman Mailer, the author of ‘The Naked and the Dead’ and American literature’s leading heavyweight contender, to Dan Wolf, the delphic editor of ‘The Village Voice.’ – James Wolcott
People still come up to me and say, ‘Hey, ‘Teen Wolf!’ ‘Teen Wolf Too’ closed a week after it opened. Where did they see it? – Jason Bateman
Some kinds of animals burrow in the ground; others do not. Some animals are nocturnal, as the owl and the bat; others use the hours of daylight. There are tame animals and wild animals. Man and the mule are always tame; the leopard and the wolf are invariably wild, and others, as the elephant, are easily tamed. – Aristotle
I got the acting bug really young, when I was around, like, 10. I pretty much just wanted to be Michael J. Fox. He was in ‘Teen Wolf’ – that was, like, the coolest role, and then he did ‘Back to the Future,’ and that was the coolest role. – Bryan Greenberg
I was dirt-poor. I could barely hold down a job. Eventually, though, I started getting small parts on shows like ‘Smallville,’ ‘Supernatural’… and lots of really bad sci-fi movies. I was running around the woods in wolf contacts, covered in fake blood made out of pancake syrup, roaring. – Cory Monteith
Growing up, I was taught that a man has to defend his family. When the wolf is trying to get in, you gotta stand in the doorway. – B. B. King
I read that all dogs have wolf DNA in them, which seemed preposterous because my dog, Tucker, is… afraid of plastic bags blowing in the wind. I thought, ‘How can Tucker have wolf in him? How can this be?’ So I started researching it. – Bruce Cameron
If you’re a person who complains about everything all the time, then you’re just the boy who cried ‘wolf.’ But if you do it on occasion and about the right reasons, then people listen. – Bryan Cranston
When Wolf Blitzer wears a not-so-great tie, how much e-mail do you think he gets? My point is, for women, unfortunately, appearance is part of the job. – Campbell Brown
The people who watch a movie like ‘Wolf of Wall Street’ and want to work on Wall Street are exactly the kind of people who shouldn’t. – Brad Katsuyama
The shepherd drives the wolf from the sheep’s for which the sheep thanks the shepherd as his liberator, while the wolf denounces him for the same act as the destroyer of liberty. Plainly, the sheep and the wolf are not agreed upon a definition of liberty. – Abraham Lincoln
I’ve enjoyed doing Wolf Blitzer’s program, and I even enjoyed having a heated debate with Bill O’Reilly. I will do it any time. – Bianca Jagger
I guess I’m pretty much of a lone wolf. I don’t say I don’t like people at all, but, to tell you the truth, I only like it then if I have a chance to look deep into their hearts and their minds. – Bela Lugosi
I didn’t know what was going to happen with ‘Teen Wolf.’ I was only scheduled to do four episodes for them, but they kept me on, and I was like, ‘Sweet! I’m still employed! That’s awesome!’ And then, they let me know that they were considering having me for the second half of the season. – Adelaide Kane
At university – when I was supposed to be studying biochemistry – I had tried to write a children’s book about a boy and a wolf cub, and there was a paragraph in that which was from the wolf’s point of view. – Michelle Paver
I think the fans from the original ‘Teen Wolf’ tuned in expecting us to ruin the franchise, and I think that we’ve only heightened it. So we’ve brought ‘Teen Wolf’ back. – Colton Haynes
There’s always the hyena of morality at the garden gate, and the real wolf at the end of the street. – D. H. Lawrence
If you turned into a wolf, there’s no reason why you’d become evil and start eating people, is there? You’d just be a wolf, run around, try to catch rabbits or something. – Martin Millar
