``When freedom rises from the killing floor No lock of iron or rivet can restrain the door And no kind of army can hope to win a war Like trying to stop the rain or still the lion`s roar Like trying to stop the whirlwind scattering seeds and spores Like trying to stop the tin cans rapping out jailhouse semaphore...``
- Joe Strummer(about a scene in A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984)) I love this stuff. The kid falls asleep and it`s all over, he`s sucked right into the bed and spit out as blood. His bloody body rises straight out and then topples over, too. I heard somebody talk about having a dummy shot out of the bed, but I said, "Hey, I want to do this! It`ll be fun! Lemme do it!"
- Johnny DeppI don`t like to see exaggerated airs and exploding egos in people who are already established. No player ever rises to prominence solely on talent. They`re molded by forces other than themselves. They should remember this - and at least twice a week drop to their knees and thank Providence for elevating them from cow ranches, dime store ribbon counters and bookkeeping desk.
- Gary CooperHe`s special, he`s in his own world. I see a young man that basically rises to the occasion. He jumps with the crowd. He wants the crowd to get involved with him.

- Louis FarrakhanWell, Barry, it`s your film. So if it rises or falls, you`re the man.
- Robert ConradSalem is lucky because we don`t have any significant high rises. Low-rise buildings seem to fair better. We seem to have lots of single- and two-story buildings, which all fare well. Most of the structures in the city are framed with wood, which seem resistant in the event of an earthquake. Older, steel buildings tend to fall apart quicker. Wood is flexible. Salem would probably fare very well, other than the downtown area.
- Tom PhillipsI get up at an unholy hour in the morning my work day is completed by the time the sun rises. I have a slightly bad back which has made an enormous contribution to American literature.
- David EddingsWhat concerns me, is the general social tendency to enforce a level, above which nothing rises and stands out.
- Dietrich Fischer-DieskauA lot of people always knock me not being able to pull my team together and lead my team to big wins. I kind of take offense to that. Cream always rises to the top.
- Anthony JohnsonThe council now beginning rises in the Church like the daybreak, a forerunner of most splendid light.
- Pope John XXIIIWe had expected a correction at some point but were unsure as to its timing. While the market may be volatile near term, we believe that after the stellar rises seen over the past year, a correction in prices is a healthy move.
- Jeremy HallWhen anger rises, think of the consequences.
- Aaron RouseWell, the telling of jokes is an art of its own, and it always rises from some emotional threat. The best jokes are dangerous, and dangerous because they are in some way truthful.
- Adam GrossbergThe price of every thing rises and falls from time to time and place to place; and with every such change the purchasing power of money changes so far as that thing goes.
- AJ HansonBut, I know enough people in that court, through the years, to know one thing: There`s always somebody who surprises you, who rises above what they thought they appointed him for, and stays with the separation of powers, and with the right of the law to decide.
- Al EmbryThe exchangeable value of all commodities, rises as the difficulties of their production increase.
- Alan SkrainkaThe sigh of History rises over ruins, not over landscapes, and in the Antilles there are few ruins to sigh over, apart from the ruins of sugar estates and abandoned forts.
- Alan ThompsonHe stands erect by bending over the fallen. He rises by lifting others.
- Alane FaginWho Rebels? Who rises in arms? Rarely the slave, but almost always the oppressor turned slave.
- Alderman Dana McLendonThe form of my poem rises out of a past that so overwhelms the present with its worth and vision that I`m at a loss to explain my delusion that there exist any real links between that past and a future worthy of it.
- Alexander KloseThe incompetence regarding body and vehicle armor rises almost to a level of criminal negligence.
- Allama IqbalThe superior man is the providence of the inferior. He is eyes for the blind, strength for the weak, and a shield for the defenseless. He stands erect by bending above the fallen. He rises by lifting others.
- Anders AslundSlow rises worth by poverty depressed.
- Andrea YergerAs tuition rises, the road to higher education in America gets steeper and harder to climb for lower and middle-income families.
- Andres AvilaAs long as the sun rises over Ontario and sets over the Pacific, I will dedicate myself to bringing the people of Oregon what they want and need most - an era of hope, change, and economic renewal.
- Andrew AranWhen will the day come that our dignity will be fully restored, when the purpose of our lives will no longer be merely to survive until the sun rises tomorrow!
- Andrew BeardIf Russia rises, it means that the USA falls down.
- Andrew K. ReeseAs a country becomes more developed, allergy rises and rises. And the notion there is that in the more-developed countries, you may be getting less exposure to infections and germs and other things that may stimulate your immune system in a direction other than allergy, ... The more your immune system is kept busy by exposure to germs and infections early in life, the less time it can devote to things like allergy.
- Ann FisherThe consciousness of people whose natural bent is to support the president and the military and the status quo is shifting. If America ever rises up, Camp Casey is what it will look like--not an anarchist street party.
- Ann KuehlingDon`t be afraid of opposition. Remember, a kite rises against, not with the wind.
- Archie MassicotteThe sea rises, the light fails, lovers cling to each other, and children cling to us. The moment we cease to hold each other, the moment we break faith with one another, the sea engulfs us and the light goes out.
- Arkadi KuhlmannThe big worry is that these energy prices hit the economy all at once and CPI rises too quickly.
- Barbara GrossThe disparity between a restaurant`s price and food quality rises in direct proportion to the size of the pepper mill.
