Famous quotes containing the words nathan and/or fellows:

    “The test of a real comedian is whether you laugh at him before he opens his mouth.”
    —George Jean Nathan (1882–1958)

    “All generous minds have a horror of what are commonly called “facts.” They are the brute beasts of the intellectual domain. Who does not know fellows that always have an ill-conditioned fact or two that they lead after them into decent company like so many bull-dogs, ready to let them slip at every ingenious suggestion, or convenient generalization, or pleasant fancy? I allow no “facts” at this table.”
    —Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. (1809–1894)
