York Noise

Famous quotes containing the words york and/or noise:

    Imagine believing in the control of inflation by curbing the money supply! That is like deciding to stop your dog fouling the sidewalk by plugging up its rear end. It is highly unlikely to succeed, but if it does it kills the hound.
    —Michael D. Stephens. “On Sinai, There’s No Economics,” New York Times (Nov. 13, 1981)

    I throw myself down in my chamber, and I call in, and invite God, and his Angels thither, and when they are there, I neglect God and his Angels, for the noise of a fly, for the rattling of a coach, for the whining of a door.
    John Donne (c. 1572–1631)
