Famous quotes containing the word rest:

—Paddy Chayefsky (19231981)
“I know what love is. Its understanding. Its you and me and let the rest of the world go by. Just the two of us living our lives together happily and proudly. No self-torture and no doubt. Its enduring and its everlasting. Nothing can change it. Nothing can change us, Ollie. Thats what I think love is.”
—Dewitt Bodeen (19081988)
