Famous quotes containing the words punch line, punch and/or line:

    “I never had anybody but you ... not a real husband ... not even a man.... It’s a bad joke without a punch line.”
    —Stanley Kubrick (b. 1928)

    “There are two kinds of fathers in traditional households: the fathers of sons and the fathers of daughters. These two kinds of fathers sometimes co-exist in one and the same man. For instance, Daughter’s Father kisses his little girl goodnight, strokes her hair, hugs her warmly, then goes into the next room where he becomes Son’s Father, who says in a hearty voice, perhaps with a light punch on the boy’s shoulder: “Goodnight, Son, see ya in the morning.””
    —Letty Cottin Pogrebin (20th century)

    “Any walk through a park that runs between a double line of mangy trees and passes brazenly by the ladies’ toilet is invariably known as “Lover’s Lane.””
    —F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
