Famous quotes containing the words main and/or card:

    I am a Communist, a convinced Communist! For some that may be a fantasy. But to me it is my main goal.
    Mikhail Gorbachev (b. 1931)

    What is the disease which manifests itself in an inability to leave a party—any party at all—until it is all over and the lights are being put out?... I suppose that part of this mania for staying is due to a fear that, if I go, something good will happen and I’ll miss it. Somebody might do card tricks, or shoot somebody else.
    Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
