Quotes

  • The American soldier typifies the dignity and courage of the best traditions of our country. - Douglas MacArthur
  • The writer's greed is appalling. He's so greedy he wants to grab more than one point of view, more than one time frame, more than one dimension. He wants to grab hold of everything that isn't nailed down. This is greed, this is senseless ambition. This is wanting to devour the whole world. I have no idea what possible use he could have for all of this. It's like trying to swallow the typewriter or the movie projector. - Don DeLillo
  • The dog is a gentleman; I hope to go to his heaven not man's. - Mark Twain (on why he preferred dogs over people who 'typify the deceitfulness, the selfishness, and the greed that are part of human nature')
