My mother taught me that it is important to be prepared for a last-minute polish.

If you polish things too much, it loses the feeling.
Yeah, I think that's sort of the American way. And it's also the Polish way, it turns out.
I have a sweet tooth for song and music. This is my Polish sin.
I'm a mom - I'm lucky if I get to shower in the morning. Luckily, nail polish stays on my toes. I've been so bad on the upkeep, though.

My parents are Polish. I don't know anything about Italian-ness.
Put off your imagination, as you put off your overcoat, when you enter the laboratory. Put it on again, as you put on your overcoat, when you leave.
I'll need my whole lifetime to polish my craft.
I'm Polish, I carry no grudges.
