Winning Ticket

Famous quotes containing the words winning and/or ticket:

    “Most of our platitudes notwithstanding, self-deception remains the most difficult deception. The tricks that work on others count for nothing in that very well-lit back alley where one keeps assignations with oneself: no winning smiles will do here, no prettily drawn lists of good intentions.”
    —Joan Didion (b. 1934)

    “It’s no go the merry-go-round, it’s no go the rickshaw
    All we want is a limousine and a ticket for the peepshow.”
    —Louis MacNeice (1907–1963)
