Famous quotes containing the words named and/or gabor:
“Methinks it would be some advantage to philosophy if men were named merely in the gross, as they are known. It would be necessary only to know the genus and perhaps the race or variety, to know the individual. We are not prepared to believe that every private soldier in a Roman army had a name of his own,—because we have not supposed that he had a character of his own.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“I never hated a man enough to give him diamonds back.”
—Zsa Zsa Gabor (b. 1919)
