Famous quotes containing the words retired and/or weapons:
“I retired from work and I didnt want to just sit there and do nothing; I dont knit and I dont like TV and Im no gardener.”
—Margaret Demers (b. c. 1917)
“Advertisers are the interpreters of our dreamsJoseph interpreting for Pharaoh. Like the movies, they infect the routine futility of our days with purposeful adventure. Their weapons are our weaknesses: fear, ambition, illness, pride, selfishness, desire, ignorance. And these weapons must be kept as bright as a sword.”
—E.B. (Elwyn Brooks)
