Famous quotes containing the words john s and/or myers:

    A book is like a man—clever and dull, brave and cowardly, beautiful and ugly. For every flowering thought there will be a page like a wet and mangy mongrel, and for every looping flight a tap on the wing and a reminder that wax cannot hold the feathers firm too near the sun.
    John Steinbeck (1902–1968)

    Garth, marriage is punishment for shoplifting, in some countries.
    —Mike Myers (b. 1964)
