Bill Gibson

Famous quotes containing the words bill and/or gibson:

    He showed me his bill of fare to tempt me to dine with him; said I, I value not your bill of fare, give me your bill of company.
    Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)

    It seemed a long way from 143rd Street. Shaking hands with the Queen of England was a long way from being forced to sit in the colored section of the bus going into downtown Wilmington, North Carolina. Dancing with the Duke of Devonshire was a long way from not being allowed to bowl in Jefferson City, Missouri, because the white customers complained about it.
    —Althea Gibson (b. 1927)
