Famous quotes containing the words gordon and/or van:
“Constancy ... that small change of love, which people exact so rigidly, receive in such conterfeit coin, and repay in baser metal.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
“His reversed body gracefully curved, his brown legs hoisted like a Tarentine sail, his joined ankles tacking, Van gripped with splayed hands the brow of gravity, and moved to and fro, veering and sidestepping, opening his mouth the wrong way, and blinking in the odd bilboquet fashion peculiar to eyelids in his abnormal position. Even more extraordinary than the variety and velocity of the movements he made in imitation of animal hind legs was the effortlessness of his stance.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
