rather quotes, aphorisms, statements, say
Rob Walton If you'd rather go to the football game than read a comic, that's fine. I'd rather do both.
Meet Me in St. Louis I'd rather be poor if we could only stay here. I'd rather go with the orphalins at the orphalins home.
Warren Buffett Look at market fluctuations as your friend rather than your enemy; profit from folly rather than participate in it.
Married... with Children Peg: What's wrong with you getting a second job?
Al: Peg, let me state this as clearly as I can. I would rather rip off my nose with a can opener. I would rather bob for apples in a sewer. I would rather have a catheter the size of a garden hose before I get another job to pay for your shopping.
The Country Wife by William Wycherley Women, as you say, are like
soldiers made constant and loyal by good pay, rather than
by oaths and covenants, therefore I'd advise my friends to
keep rather than marry;
Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen He was not an ill-disposed young man, unless to be rather cold hearted, and rather selfish, is to be ill-disposed. (Volume 1, Chapter 1)
Patrick Macnee They call it The New Avengers but it's really the old Avengers with new people except for me, looking rather fat and rather old.
Angel Lorne: They need the hotspot because they're going to Pylea, my home dimension.
Agnes: And you're not going with them?
Lorne: Hey. I'd rather have a hydrochloric acid facial. I'd rather invite a hive of wasps to nest in my throat. I'd rather sit through a junior highschool production of "Cats". You see where I'm going with this?
Agnes: Not Pylea?
Lorne: Exactomundo.
