Famous quotes containing the words address and/or space:

    Take a red book called TELEPHONE,
    size eight by four. There it sits.
    My red book, name, address and number.
    These are all people that I somehow own.
    Yet some of these names are counterfeit.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    In the United States there is more space where nobody is is than where anybody is.
    Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
