Famous quotes containing the words guy w, guy and/or castle:

    A grifter’s got an irresistible urge to be the guy who’s wise. There’s nothin’ to whipping a fool. Hell, fools are made to be whipped. But to take another pro. Even your partner, who knows you and has his eye on you. That’s a score! No matter what happens.
    Donald E. Westlake (b. 1933)

    All my brothers, my brothers-in-law, they’re always telling me what a good-hearted guy I am. You don’t get to be good-hearted by accident. You get kicked around long enough, you get to be a real professor of pain.
    Paddy Chayefsky (1923–1981)

    He that is born to be hanged shall never be drowned.
    14th-century French proverb, first recorded in English in A. Barclay, Gringore’s Castle of Labour (1506)
