Famous quotes containing the words templeton, insect and/or collection:

    I feel a strange delight that fills me full,
    Strange gratitude, as if evil itself were beautiful,
    —Frank Templeton Prince (b. 1912)

    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    It’s rather grisly, isnt it, how soon a living man becomes nothing more than a collection of stocks and bonds and debts and real estate?
    John Dos Passos (1896–1970)
