Famous quotes containing the word allen:

    “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)
