The Spook Who Sat By The Door

Famous quotes containing the words sat and/or door:

“—The man who has stood on the Acropolis,
And looked down over Attica; or he
Who has sailed where picturesque Constantinople is,
Or seen Timbuctoo, or hath taken tea
In small-eyed China’s crockery-ware metropolis,
Or sat amidst the bricks of Nineveh,
May not think much of London’s first appearance—
But ask him what he thinks of it a year hence!”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

“That’s what I always say. Love flies out the door when money comes innuendo.”
—Arthur Sheerman, U.S. screenwriter. Norman McLeod. Monkey Business (film)
