Famous quotes containing the words how and/or there:
“Funny ain’t it. Here I am worrying about a woman. Men don’t worry much about women when they’re around. But when it gets way off from home like we are now, and where he knows he’s going a lot further away ... I mean that’s when a woman gets workin’ in your mind. You reckon you’re a fool for not noticin’ before how, how big a part of things they be. There ain’t nothin’ like seein’ a woman’s face.”
—Dudley Nichols (1895–1960)
““Is there anybody there?” said the Traveller,
Knocking on the moonlit door;”
—Walter De La Mare (1873–1956)
