Famous quotes containing the words key and/or west:

    “This is not a book. This is libel, slander, defamation of character. This is not a book, in the ordinary sense of the word. No, this is a prolonged insult, a gob of spit in the face of Art, a kick in the pants to God, Man, Destiny, Time, Love, Beauty ... what you will. I am going to sing for you, a little off key perhaps, but I will sing.”
    —Henry Miller (1891–1980)

    “When choosing between two evils, I always like to pick the one I never tried before.”
    —Mae West (1892–1980)
