Famous quotes containing the words opening and/or weekend:
“His reversed body gracefully curved, his brown legs hoisted like a Tarentine sail, his joined ankles tacking, Van gripped with splayed hands the brow of gravity, and moved to and fro, veering and sidestepping, opening his mouth the wrong way, and blinking in the odd bilboquet fashion peculiar to eyelids in his abnormal position. Even more extraordinary than the variety and velocity of the movements he made in imitation of animal hind legs was the effortlessness of his stance.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (18991977)
“Weekend planning is a prime time to apply the Deathbed Priority Test: On your deathbed, will you wish youd spent more prime weekend hours grocery shopping or walking in the woods with your kids?”
—Louise Lague (20th century)
