Famous quotes containing the word types:

    “The bourgeoisie loves so-called “positive” types and novels with happy endings since they lull one into thinking that it is fine to simultaneously acquire capital and maintain one’s innocence, to be a beast and still be happy.”
    —Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
