Put Off

Famous quotes containing the word put:

    Too often when you thought you’d be showered with confetti
    What they flung at you was a plate of hot spaghetti
    You’ve put your fancy clothes and flashy gems in hock
    Yet you pause before your father’s door afraid to knock
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    It is not a bad thing that children should occasionally, and politely, put parents in their place.
    Colette [Sidonie Gabrielle Colette] (1873–1954)
