Famous quotes containing the words dos and/or hooks:
“Were headed for collapse, if you want my opinion, Missy. I can see it in the fallin off of the quality of vagrants. There was a time you could find real good company in almost any jungle youd pick, men who could talk, men whod read a book now and then; and now, what do you find, a lot of dirty little guttersnipes no decent tramp would want to associate with.
Well, its been that way all through history.”
—John Dos Passos (18961970)
“... the function of art is to do more than tell it like it isits to imagine what is possible.”
—bell hooks (b. c. 1955)
