Telephone Calls

Famous quotes containing the words telephone and/or calls:

“Men will not give up their privilege of helplessness without a struggle. The average man has a carefully cultivated ignorance about household matters—from what to do with the crumbs to the grocer’s telephone number—a sort of cheerful inefficiency which protects him better than the reputation for having a violent temper.”
—Crystal Eastman (1881–1928)

“Any man today who returns from work, sinks into a chair, and calls for his pipe is a man with an appetite for danger.”
