“America: It's like Britain, only with buttons.”
Ringo Starr

Lemony Snicket
“That's true," the male officer said. "Stew Mitchum is as cute as a button."

I tried to think of buttons I'd seen that liked to torture small animals, but I couldn't.”
Lemony Snicket, Who Could That Be at This Hour?

“Тільки людина здатна брехати. У природі брехні не існує. Хіба брешуть дерева, птахи, вода?.. Можна жити бідно, безтямно, дурнувато, легковажно, важко, але при цьому жити чесно - необхідно. Інакше - морок, ніч, смерть... Найстрашніше - втратити віру. Її гублять раз - і назавжди... А потім шукають. І знаходять виправдання собі. Роблять вигляд, що все гаразд, і посміхаються. Але голка в серці залишається. З нею можна якось жити.

Але хіба це життя?”
Iren Rozdobudko, Пуговица

“...життя не має смаку, в чистому вигляді воно - як дистильована вода. Ми самі додаємо у нього солі, перцю чи цукру. Коли життя набуває смаку - серце болить сильніше”
Ірен Роздобудько, Пуговица

“On a shirt, every button has its own button-hole. Fix a button elsewhere and your dressing goes crazy and nasty! On earth, everyone has his/her dreams. You have your own. Fix yourself there and your life will be fully fulfilled!”
Israelmore Ayivor, The Great Hand Book of Quotes

Lisa Kleypas
“She found another intriguing object, and she held it up to inspect it.
A button.
Her brow creased as she stared at the front of the button, which was engraved with a pattern of a windmill. The back of it contained a tiny lock of black hair behind a thin plate of glass, held in place with a copper rim.
Swift blanched and reached for it, but Daisy snatched it back, her fingers closing around the button.
Daisy's pulse began to race. "I've seen this before," she said. "It was a part of a set. My mother had a waistcoat made for Father with five buttons. One was engraved with a windmill, another with a tree, another with a bridge... she took a lock of hair from each of her children and put it inside a button. I remember the way she took a little snip from my hair at the back where it wouldn't show."
Still not looking at her, Swift reached for the discarded contents of his pocket and methodically replaced them.
As the silence drew out, Daisy waited in vain for an explanation. Finally she reached out and took hold of his sleeve. His arm stilled, and he stared at her fingers on his coat fabric.
"How did you get it?" she whispered.
Swift waited so long that she thought he might answer.
Finally he spoke with a quiet surliness that wrenched her heart. "Your father wore the waistcoat to the company offices. It was much admired. But later that day he was in a temper and in the process of throwing an ink bottle he spilled some on himself. The waistcoat was ruined. Rather than face your mother with the news he gave the garment to me, buttons and all, and told me to dispose of it."
"But you kept one button." Her lungs expanded until her chest felt tight on the inside and her heartbeat was frantic. "The windmill. Which was mine. Have you... have you carried a lock of my hair all these years?”
Lisa Kleypas, Scandal in Spring

“Люди, які не відчувають любові, рано чи пізно перетворюються в зомбі, в аморфне ніщо, вони не задоволені життям, яким би воно не було.”
Iren Rozdobudko

Kristen Henderson
“The outfit, tight in places,
and loose in some, says as much
in the buttons as it does in cuffs.”
Kristen Henderson, Of My Maiden Smoking

F. Scott Fitzgerald
“Douăzeci și cinci e prea cinică și sofisticată; treizeci e numai bună pentru paloarea excesului de muncă; patruzeci e vârsta poveștilor lungi, care durează cît un trabuc fumat în întregime; șaizeci e... ah, șaizeci e prea aproape de șaptezeci; dar cincizeci e cu adevărat floarea vîrstei. O ador.”
F Scott Fitzgerald, This Side Of Paradise

F. Scott Fitzgerald
“Încercăm să ne alegem mijloacele și apoi luăm ce putem � și ne mai și bucurăm.”
F Scott Fitzgerald, This Side Of Paradise

“When things get tough, just hit ‘global emergency� button.”
Dipti Dhakul, Quote: +/-

Irene Rozdobudko
“А ви знаєте, що існують люди, яким не потрібні слава, гроші, розкоші? Їм треба лише, щоб їх любили. Любили і не зраджували. Такі собі невеличкі горобчики, яких приручили, нагодували, напоїли, обігріли. Невже у когось підніметься рука образити свого прирученого горобчика?”
Iren Rozdobudko, Пуговица

Erika Hall
“Some websites are completely optimized for simple conversion, and it’s easy to tell. The design centers on one clear call to action, a vivid lozenge labeled with a verb.”
Erika Hall, Just Enough Research

“Check out the mouse on your computer the 2 button can be used as a "1" and as a "2" button which will mean it can do the both actions, so why do we have "1" and "2" as a buttons on the mouse??”
Deyth Banger
