Fifty

Famous quotes containing the word fifty:

    “I almost wished that I was still in prison. I felt I wasn’t ready to be out making
    decisions.... Even now over three years after my release, I can carry around fifty rand for
    two weeks and not spend it. I go into shops, but I find it hard to choose things.”
    —Feziwe Bookholane (b. 1942)

    ““... Keep cold, young orchard. Good-by and keep cold.
    Dread fifty above more than fifty below.””
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “War and culture, those are the two poles of Europe, her heaven and hell, her glory and shame, and they cannot be separated from one another. When one comes to an end, the other will end also and one cannot end without the other. The fact that no war has broken out in Europe for fifty years is connected in some mysterious way with the fact that for fifty years no new Picasso has appeared either.”
    —Milan Kundera (b. 1929)
