Meets Iowa Highway

Famous quotes containing the words meets, iowa and/or highway:

    As for an authentic villain, the real thing, the absolute, the artist, one rarely meets him even once in a lifetime. The ordinary bad hat is always in part a decent fellow.
    Colette [Sidonie Gabrielle Colette] (1873–1954)

    When I was growing up I used to think that the best thing about coming from Des Moines was that it meant you didn’t come from anywhere else in Iowa. By Iowa standards, Des Moines is a mecca of cosmopolitanism, a dynamic hub of wealth and education, where people wear three-piece suits and dark socks, often simultaneously.
    Bill Bryson (b. 1951)

    The highway leads to Heaven, but each finds his own way.
    Chinese proverb.
