Famous quotes containing the words hit and/or records:

    Attack is the reaction; I never think I have hit hard unless it rebounds.
    Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)

    My confessions are shameless. I confess, but do not repent. The fact is, my confessions are prompted, not by ethical motives, but intellectual. The confessions are to me the interesting records of a self-investigator.
    W.N.P. Barbellion (1889–1919)
