Famous quotes containing the words saturday and/or play:
“The return of the asymmetrical Saturday was one of those small events that were interior, local, almost civic and which, in tranquil lives and closed societies, create a sort of national bond and become the favorite theme of conversation, of jokes and of stories exaggerated with pleasure: it would have been a ready- made seed for a legendary cycle, had any of us leanings toward the epic.”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
“Won’t you play a simple melody
Like my mother sang to me—
One with good old fashioned harmony.
Play a simple melody.”
—Irving Berlin (1888–1989)
