The Ladykillers  - Quotes

 Professor G.H. Dorr:
Madam, or rather, mesdames, you must accept our apologies for not bein' able to perform, for, as you see, we are shorthanded. Gawain is still at work, and we could no more play with one part tacit than a horse could canter shy one leg. Perhaps I could offer, as a poor but ready substitute, a brief poetic recital. Though I do not pretend to any great oratorical skills, I would be happy to present, with your ladies' permission, verse from the unquiet mind of Mr. Edgar Allan Poe. Ladies, thy beauty is to me like those Nicean barks of yore, that gently, o'er a perfumed sea, the weary, wayworn wanderer bore, to his own native shore. On desperate seas long wont to roam, thy hyacinth hair, thy classic face, thy Naiad airs have brought me home to the glory that was Greece and the grandeur that was Rome.

 Jo:
Friedrich, this is what I write. My apologies if it fails to live up to your high standards.
Friedrich Bhaer:
Jo, there is more to you than this. If you have the courage to write it.
 

Dave Eggers  - Quotes

 The idea we came up with, well before we left, was something we coined Performance Literature. Excuse the use of that second word, because I realize it's presumptuous. Also, excuse the first word, and the term in general.

Our ambitions in those days were very, very simple: to be rich and famous. We made no excuses for it. We just got out of havin' are arse hangin' out of our trousers and I don't make any apologies for wanting to be rich and famous. Thank you very much.

 It is a good rule in life never to apologize. The right sort of people do not want apologies, and the wrong sort take a mean advantage of them.
