Couple

Famous quotes containing the word couple:

“Parents can fail to cheer your successes as wildly as you expected, pointing out that you are sharing your Nobel Prize with a couple of other people, or that your Oscar was for supporting actress, not really for a starring role. More subtly, they can cheer your successes too wildly, forcing you into the awkward realization that your achievement of merely graduating or getting the promotion did not warrant the fireworks and brass band.”
—Frank Pittman (20th century)

“You and I were a couple of drunks on the sea of booze and the boat sank.”
—J.P. (James Pinckney)

“For a couple with young children, divorce seldom comes as a “solution” to stress, only as a way to end one form of pain and accept another.”
—Fred Rogers (20th century)
