Famous quotes containing the word brand:
“The question mark is alright when it is all alone when it
is used as a brand on cattle or when it could be used
in decoration but connected with writing it is
completely entirely completely uninteresting.... A
question is a question, anybody can know that a
question is a question and so why add to it the
question mark when it is already there when the
question is already there in the writing.”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
“Don’t waste time trying to break a man’s heart; be satisfied if you can just manage to chip it in a brand new place.”
—Helen Rowland (1875–1950)
“Tell me what brand of whiskey that Grant drinks. I would like to send a barrel of it to my other generals.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
