Famous quotes containing the word general:
“What is written without effort is in general read without pleasure.”
—Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)
“Never alone
Did the King sigh, but with a general groan.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“You don’t want a general houseworker, do you? Or a traveling companion, quiet, refined, speaks fluent French entirely in the present tense? Or an assistant billiard-maker? Or a private librarian? Or a lady car-washer? Because if you do, I should appreciate your giving me a trial at the job. Any minute now, I am going to become one of the Great Unemployed. I am about to leave literature flat on its face. I don’t want to review books any more. It cuts in too much on my reading.”
—Dorothy Parker (1893–1967)
