Famous quotes containing the words year and/or period:

    “Every New Year is the direct descendant, isn’t it, of a long line of proven criminals?”
    —Ogden Nash (1902–1971)

    “Stupid word, that. Period. In America it means “full stop” like in punctuation. That’s stupid as well. A period isn’t a full stop. It’s a new beginning. I don’t mean all that creativity, life-giving force, earth-mother stuff, I mean it’s a new beginning to the month, relief that you’re not pregnant, when you don’t have to have a child.”
    —Michelene Wandor (b. 1940)
