Twelve Bar

Famous quotes containing the words twelve and/or bar:

    I love the smell of napalm in the morning. You know, one time we had to hailbomb, for twelve hours, and when it was all over I walked up.... We didn’t find one of ‘em, not one stinking dink
    body. That smell, you know, that gasoline smell. The whole hill. It smelled like ... victory.
    John Milius, U.S. screenwriter, Francis Ford Coppola (b. 1939)

    O City city, I can sometimes hear
    Beside a public bar in Lower Thames Street,
    The pleasant whining of a mandolin
    And a clatter and a chatter from within
    Where fishmen lounge at noon.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
