Famous quotes containing the words leading and/or authors:

    “What do you do in the Grand Hotel? Eat, sleep, loaf around, flirt a little, dance a little. A hundred doors leading to one hall. No one knows anything about the person next to them. And when you leave, someone occupies your room, lies in your bed. That’s the end.”
    —William A. Drake (1900–1965)

    “One thing that literature would be greatly the better for
    Would be a more restricted employment by authors of simile and
    metaphor.”
    —Ogden Nash (1902–1971)
