Famous quotes containing the word types:

    “He types his laboured column—weary drudge!

    These dry leaves of his autumn.”
    —Robertson Davies (b. 1913)

    —Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    “He’s one of those know-it-all types that, if you flatter the wig off him, he chatter like a goony bird at mating time.”
