Famous quotes containing the words packet and/or exchange:
“There are some circles in America where it seems to be more socially acceptable to carry a hand-gun than a packet of cigarettes.”

“I sometimes feel a great ennui, profound emptiness, doubts which sneer in my face in the midst of the most spontaneous satisfactions.

—Gustave Flaubert (1821–1880)
