Names

Famous quotes containing the word names:

    “The names of those who in their lives fought for life,
    Who wore at their hearts the fire’s centre.
    Born of the sun they traveled a short while towards the sun,
    And left the vivid air signed with their honour.”
    —Stephen Spender (1909–1995)

    “At present our only true names are nicknames.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “No, no! I don’t, I don’t want to know your name. You don’t have a name, and I don’t have a name, either. No names here. Not one name.”
    —Bernardo Bertolucci (b. 1940)
