Connolly/places

Famous quotes containing the words connolly and/or places:

    “When writers meet they are truculent, indifferent, or over-polite. Then comes the inevitable moment. A shows B that he has read something of B’s. Will B show A? If not, then A hates B, if yes, then all is well. The only other way for writers to meet is to share a quick pee over a common lamp-post.”
    —Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)

    “We said there warn’t no home like a raft, after all. Other places do seem so cramped up and smothery, but a raft don’t. You feel mighty free and easy and comfortable on a raft.”
    —Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
