Quite Contrary

Famous quotes containing the word contrary:

    The bar ... is an exercise in solitude. Above all else, it must be quiet, dark, very comfortable—and, contrary to modern mores, no music of any kind, no matter how faint. In sum, there should be no more than a dozen tables, and a clientele that doesn’t like to talk.
    Luis Buñuel (1900–1983)

    I hate to see complacency prevail in our lives when it’s so directly contrary to the teaching of Christ.
    Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
