Famous quotes containing the words list of and/or list:

    I made a list of things I have
    to remember and a list
    of things I want to forget,
    but I see they are the same list.

    Hey, you dress up our town very nicely. You don’t look out the Chamber of Commerce is going to list you in their publicity with the local attractions.
    Robert M. Fresco, and Jack Arnold. Dr. Matt Hastings (John Agar)
