Famous quotes containing the word front:

    “Education is a necessity, it helps to understand life. Like that compagnero in Cuba who talked about politics, back when they were on strike. He knew many things, that hijo de puta, and he unraveled the most confusing situations in a marvelous way. You could see each point in front of you on the line of his reasoning like rinsed laundry set up to dry; he explained things to you so clearly that you could grasp it like a good hunk of bread with your hand.”
    —Jacques Roumain (1907–1945)

    “The dandy should aspire to be uninterruptedly sublime. He should live and sleep in front of a mirror.”
    —Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)

    “In front of dwarves one should not talk about midgets.”
    —Chinese proverb.
