Toy Warning

Famous quotes containing the words toy and/or warning:

    “I did toy with the idea of doing a cook-book.... The recipes were to be the routine ones: how to make dry toast, instant coffee, hearts of lettuce and brownies. But as an added attraction, at no extra charge, my idea was to put a fried egg on the cover. I think a lot of people who hate literature but love fried eggs would buy it if the price was right.”
    —Groucho Marx (1895–1977)

    “Tonight I will speak up and interrupt
    your letters, warning you that wars are coming,
    that the Count will die, that you will accept
    your America back to live like a prim thing
    on the farm in Maine.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
