Denis Leary was born on August 18, 1957
American actor, b.1957Most people think life sucks, and then you die. Not me. I beg to differ. I think life sucks, then you get cancer, then your dog dies, your wife leaves you, the cancer goes into remission, you get a new dog, you get remarried, you owe ten million dollars in medical bills but you work hard for thirty-five years and you pay it back and then -- one day -- you have a massive stroke, your whole right side is paralyzed, you have to limp along the streets and speak out of the left side of your mouth and drool but you go into rehabilitation and regain the power to walk and the power to talk and then -- one day -- you step off a curb at Sixty-seventh Street, and BANG you get hit by a city bus and then you die. Maybe. More quotations from Denis Leary |

Anita Loos died on August 18, 1981
American Hollywood screenwriter and novelist celebrated for her novel Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, which became the basis of a popular play, two musicals and two films. 1893-1981Today there are no fairy tales for us to believe in, and this is possibly a reason for the universal prevalence of mental crack-up. Yes, if we were childish in the past, I wish we could be children once again. More quotations from Anita Loos |  |
