Famous quotes containing the words beach and/or bums:
“The dominant and most deep-dyed trait of the journalist is his timorousness. Where the novelist fearlessly plunges into the water of self-exposure, the journalist stands trembling on the shore in his beach robe.... The journalist confines himself to the clean, gentlemanly work of exposing the griefs and shames of others.”
—Janet Malcolm (b. 1934)
“I think I’d like to contribute to society in some way. I don’t know what that might be. Right now, I just sort of give bums money on the street.”
—Isabelle Kuprin (b. c. 1960)
