Famous quotes containing the words gingerbread and/or men:
“Do we write books so that they shall merely be read? Don’t we also write them for employment in the household? For one that is read from start to finish, thousands are leafed through, other thousands lie motionless, others are jammed against mouseholes, thrown at rats, others are stood on, sat on, drummed on, have gingerbread baked on them or are used to light pipes.”
—G.C. (Georg Christoph)
“No men are oftener wrong than those that can least bear to be so.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
