Famous quotes containing the words north and/or side:
“In England if something goes wrong—say, if one finds a skunk in the garden—he writes to the family solicitor, who proceeds to take the proper measures; whereas in America, you telephone the fire department. Each satisfies a characteristic need; in the English, love of order and legalistic procedure; and here in America, what you like is something vivid, and red, and swift.”
—Alfred North Whitehead (1861–1947)
“We lay there without moving. But under us all moved, and moved us, gently, up and down, and from side to side.”
—Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)
