Famous quotes containing the words crank and/or casey:
“I review novels to make money, because it is easier for a sluggard to write an article a fortnight than a book a year, because the writer is soothed by the opiate of action, the crank by posing as a good journalist, and having an airhole. I dislike it. I do it and I am always resolving to give it up.”
—Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)
“Maybe it’s like Casey says. A fellow ain’t got a soul of his own. Just a little piece of a big soul. The one big soul that belongs to everybody.”
—Nunnally Johnson (1897–1977)
