Famous quotes containing the word coming:
“Basically, I have no place in organized politics. By coming to the British Parliament, I’ve allowed the people to sacrifice me at the top and let go the more effective job I should be doing at the bottom.”
—Bernadette Devlin (b. 1947)
“The things that were coming to be talked about

At the base of some new thing, that unrolls
Its question mark like a new wave on the shore.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
