Mention

Famous quotes containing the word mention:

    But this is neither here nor there—why do I mention it?—Ask my pen,—it governs me,—I govern not it.

    I criticize myself ruthlessly, but never mention the faults of which I am truly ashamed.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    But that wasn’t fancy enough for Lord Byron, oh dear me no, he had to invent a lot of figures of speech and then interpolate them,
    With the result that whenever you mention Old Testament soldiers to
    people they say Oh yes, they’re the ones that a lot of wolves dressed up in gold and purple ate them.
    Ogden Nash (1902–1971)
