Famous quotes containing the words thomas and/or fuller:

    He holds the wire from this box of nerves
    Praising the moral error
    Of birth and death, the two sad knaves of thieves,
    And the hunger’s emperor;
    He pulls the chain, the cistern moves.
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    We got a right to climb out of the sewer and live like other people. We could start from scratch. Make every minute count twice for the one we lost.
    —Samuel Fuller (b. 1911)
