Famous quotes containing the words max and/or page:

    I have thought of relocating, somewhere where I’d be more appreciated. California, perhaps. I could teach earthquake preparedness.
    Wesley Strick, U.S. screenwriter, and Martin Scorsese. Max Cady (Robert DeNiro)

    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)
