Famous quotes containing the words list of, list, love and/or parades:

    “A man’s interest in a single bluebird is worth more than a complete but dry list of the fauna and flora of a town.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “I am opposed to writing about the private lives of living authors and psychoanalyzing them while they are alive. Criticism is getting all mixed up with a combination of the Junior F.B.I.- men, discards from Freud and Jung and a sort of Columnist peep- hole and missing laundry list school.... Every young English professor sees gold in them dirty sheets now. Imagine what they can do with the soiled sheets of four legal beds by the same writer and you can see why their tongues are slavering.”
    —Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)

    “Amy: I love good heavy metal.
    Zack: That’s impossible. That’s like saying I love good root canal.”
    —Blake Edwards (b. 1922)

    “The era of long parades past an official podium filled with cold faces is gone. Celebrating is now a right, not a duty.”
    —Lothar De Maizière (b. 1940)
