Fictitious Business Names

Famous quotes containing the words fictitious, business and/or names:

    Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)

    The business of the poet is not to find new emotions, but to use the ordinary ones and, in working them up into poetry, to express feelings which are not in actual emotions at all.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    Holding myself the humblest of all whose names were before the convention, I feel in especial need of the assistance of all.
