Tragically Hip

Famous quotes containing the words tragically and/or hip:

“But I am not tragically colored. There is no great sorrow dammed up in my soul, nor lurking behind my eyes. I do not mind at all.

—Zora Neale Hurston (1907–1960)

“Rituals are important. Nowadays it’s hip not to be married. I’m not interested in being hip.”
—John Lennon (1940–1980)
