Quotation
| “ | We were terrible before we went to Germany to play at the Star Club. In fact, the first time we went I don't think they were keen on us at all. By our second visit, though, we were going down really well. You can't help but improve when you play in an atmosphere like that. | ” |
NME - November 1963

Famous quotes containing the word quotation:
“The habit some writers indulge in of perpetual quotation is one it behoves lovers of good literature to protest against, for it is an insidious habit which in the end must cloud the stream of thought, or at least check spontaneity. If it be true that le style c’est l’homme, what is likely to happen if l’homme is for ever eking out his own personality with that of some other individual?”
—Dame Ethel Smyth (1858–1944)
“In the dying world I come from quotation is a national vice. It used to be the classics, now it’s lyric verse.”
—Evelyn Waugh (1903–1966)
“Every quotation contributes something to the stability or enlargement of the language.”
—Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)
