Famous quotes containing the words top, ten, money, making and/or stars:

    On the top of the Crumpetty Tree
    The Quangle Wangle sat,
    But his face you could not see,
    On account of his Beaver Hat.
    Edward Lear (1812–1888)

    I saw ten thousand talkers whose tongues were all broken,
    I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children,
    And it’s a hard, it’s a hard, it’s a hard, it’s a hard,
    It’s a hard rain’s a-gonna fall.
    Bob Dylan [Robert Allen Zimmerman] (b. 1941)

    Lora May: I’ve been a good wife. The best wife your money could buy.
    Porter: Strictly cash and carry.
    Joseph L. Mankiewicz (1909–1993)

    The same people who are murdered slowly in the mechanized slaughterhouses of work are also arguing, singing, drinking, dancing, making love, holding the streets, picking up weapons and inventing a new poetry.
    Raoul Vaneigem (b. 1934)

    It is when we try to grapple with another man’s intimate need that we perceive how incomprehensible, wavering, and misty are the beings that share with us the sight of the stars and the warmth of the sun.
    Joseph Conrad (1857–1924)
