I actually share her view and understand her frustration when any government attempts to ban secular symbols like Santa Claus or Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer or Christmas lights.

Brits and Americans have hundreds of different phrases for the same thing. Luckily it's usually a source of amusement rather than frustration. A flashlight by any other name is still a torch. My personal favourite is 'fairy lights ' which we boringly refer to as 'Christmas lights.'

I love Christmas not just because of the presents but because of all the decorations and lights and the warmth of the season.

Hard work spotlights the character of people: some turn up their sleeves some turn up their noses and some don't turn up at all.

Whether they give or refuse it delights women just the same to have been asked.

The truth is the Super Bowl long ago became more than just a football game. It's part of our culture like turkey at Thanksgiving and lights at Christmas and like those holidays beyond their meaning a factor in our economy.

Few delights can equal the presence of one whom we trust utterly.

I used my aviation contacts to open a travel agency. I used to book Caribbean flights.

It's very expensive to be a professional tennis player with all the travel and the flights and the hotels and everything.

On long haul flights I always drink loads and loads of water and eat light and healthy food.

Being around some of the bright lights of the technology world and having them expect great things helps you sit down and do it seriously.

There are dark shadows on the earth but its lights are stronger in the contrast.

The Viennese wash everything. Where else in the world does the government hire public servants to wash public telephone booths and the glass over traffic lights? Every time I see someone doing these things I smile like a child.

In the movies Bette Davis lights two cigarettes and hands the second one to James Cagney. It was just so glamorous and romantic.

Middle age is when a guy keeps turning off lights for economical rather than romantic reasons.

No what I should really like to do right now in the full blaze of lights before this illustrious assembly is to shower every one of you with gifts with flowers with offerings of poetry - to be young once more to ride on the crest of the wave.

He who draws noble delights from sentiments of poetry is a true poet though he has never written a line in all his life.

I have a lot of plants and fish and a pet lizard and Venus flytraps. I have a whole ecosystem in my room like a running waterfall and different lights and sensors set on digital timers.

I want to light the lights of patriotism.

The scientist does not study nature because it is useful he studies it because he delights in it and he delights in it because it is beautiful.

Forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair.

Music is an agreeable harmony for the honor of God and the permissible delights of the soul.

Quite often - a lot of the work I had done had been extensively with women. Most especially in the theater but also quite often in the movies. That has its own delights and maybe pitfalls too.

We should have a State in which we could live and breathe as free men and which we could develop according to our own lights and culture and where principles of Islamic social justice could find free play.
