Famous quotes containing the words car and/or number:

    “When a man opens the car door for his wife, it’s either a new car or a new wife.”

    “Strange goings on! Jones did it slowly, deliberately, in the bathroom, with a knife, at midnight. What he did was butter a piece of toast. We are too familiar with the language of action to notice at first an anomaly: the ‘it’ of ‘Jones did it slowly, deliberately,...’ seems to refer to some entity, presumably an action, that is then characterized in a number of ways.”
    —Donald Davidson (b. 1917)
