Famous quotes containing the words mark and/or gun:

    Tears are sometimes an inappropriate response to death. When a life has been lived completely honestly, completely successfully, or just completely, the correct response to death’s perfect punctuation mark is a smile.
    Julie Burchill (b. 1960)

    —Administration in the State of Texa, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
