Famous quotes containing the words variant and/or names:
““I am willing to die for my country” is a variant of “I am willing to kill for my country.””
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“I introduced her to Elena, and in that life-quickening atmosphere of a big railway station where everything is something trembling on the brink of something else, thus to be clutched and cherished, the exchange of a few words was enough to enable two totally dissimilar women to start calling each other by their pet names the very next time they met.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
