Bennett

Famous quotes containing the word bennett:

“He said “Next time can I bring my friend?”
And I thought “Does he mean friend?”
And I thought “Yes he does mean friend.”

It was the Dark Ages. Men and men.
And they could still put you in prison for it.
And did, dear.”
—Alan Bennett (b. 1934)

Of my sad people’s soul
Hidden by a minstrel-smile.”
—Gwendolyn B. Bennett (1902–1981)
