Famous quotes containing the words slow and/or money:

    John, Jake or Charley, hopping the slow freight
    —Memphis to Tallahassee—riding the rods,
    Blind fists of nothing, humpty-dumpty clods.
    Hart Crane (1899–1932)

    The way I see it, God gave me the body, so I intend to use it. It’s a big ego trip.... You know, you look around a bar, you pick out a guy and you say, that’s the one: I’m going to take all of his money tonight.
    Teresa Beaty (b. c. 1975)
