Famous quotes containing the word fish:

    “I love meetings with suits. I live for meetings with suits. I love them because I know they had a really boring week and I walk in there with my orange velvet leggings and drop popcorn in my cleavage and then fish it out and eat it. I like that. I know I’m entertaining them and I know that they know. Obviously, the best meetings are with suits that are intelligent, because then things are operating on a whole other level.”
    —Madonna [Madonna Louise Ciccione] (b. 1959)

    “To me heaven would be a big bull ring with me holding two barrera seats and a trout stream outside that no one else was allowed to fish in and two lovely houses in the town; one where I would have my wife and children and be monogamous and love them truly and well and the other where I would have my nine beautiful mistresses on nine different floors.”
    —Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)

    “Little fish swam by his nose
    and he noted them and touched their slime.
    Plankton came and he held them in his palm
    like God’s littlest light bulbs.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
