"I got it purely from smoking. Luckily, they found that this nodule was more of a warning than anything else. I`m not going to die on you folks just yet. Life is like a raindrop on a lotus leaf. Everybody realizes that you are either a very lucky person or you`re not." (On his battle with throat cancer in 1997)
- George HarrisonWe all have our distinct things. Leaf (brother Joaquin Phoenix) was the family clown--very witty, very smart. Mom had to work a lot, so Rainbow (sister Rain Phoenix) was the mother and the older sister and trendsetter. Liberty (sister Liberty Phoenix) was always the most physical, like an acrobat, very nimble and strong, a really beautiful girl. And Summer (sister Summer Phoenix) was the youngest, the baby of the family, with big brown eyes and blonde hair, more American-looking.
- River PhoenixIn everything that I do I learn and try to put it to use. I have learned to go through life not into it. It`s like a boat. You mustn`t let the water in or you`re sunk. Of course, I`ve made mistakes and I have had failures, but I do not dwell on them because people don`t care about garbage. When I make a mistake it`s like a bad leaf on a lettuce - I throw it out into the waste basket.
- Ginger RogersI like Toronto a lot, it`s a good city. The only thing that really annoys me about Toronto is that you`re turning Maple Leaf Gardens into a grocery store, which is absolutely nothing short of disgusting.
- Rick WakemanWe will all, someday, experience death, and become obsolete as a dead leaf falling from a tree, crushed by passersby to ashes underlying the earth.

- Gary HartOctober is the fallen leaf, but it is also a wider horizon more clearly seen. It is the distant hills once more in sight, and the enduring constellations above them once again.
- Alexander BarclayAs the country now turns a new leaf, our ambition is to give hope to each and every Afghan.
- Alexander BrodThe ordinary bronze powder is, as before mentioned, made from an exceedingly thin leaf of beaten metal, resembling an ordinary leaf of gold.
- Alexander RahrFaith makes all evil good to us, and all good better; unbelief makes all good evil, and all evil worse. Faith laughs at the shaking of the spear; unbelief trembles at the shaking of a leaf.
- Anatol RapoportHe`s taught me everything about being a quarterback. I didn`t know how to study in college. I wasn`t certain how to watch film properly. Suddenly, I feel like his project. And there`s not a day that goes by when he doesn`t tell us stories about Drew and, of course, Leaf and what happened out there (when he was coach of the Chargers).
- Angie HildLook for the little green leaf, which designates a healthier option.
- Annie RansomWe are pleased our revenue trend continues to show year-over-year improvement in both our cardiorespiratory and New Leaf health and fitness markets,
- Bakul DholakiaI believe a leaf of grass is no less than the journey-work of the stars.
- Walt WhitmanAutumn is a second spring where every leaf is a flower
- Albert CamusAutumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower.
- Albert CamusNature will bear the closest inspection. She invites us to lay our eye level with her smallest leaf, and take an insect view of its plain.
- Henry David Thoreau
