Famous quotes containing the words main and/or characters:
“The aphorism wants to be at the same time both main line and off beat.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“To marry a man out of pity is folly; and, if you think you are going to influence the kind of fellow who has “never had a chance, poor devil,” you are profoundly mistaken. One can only influence the strong characters in life, not the weak; and it is the height of vanity to suppose that you can make an honest man of anyone.”
—Margot Asquith (1864–1945)
