Famous quotes containing the words william and/or cameron:

    I often think it’s comical
    How Nature always does contrive
    That every boy and every gal,
    That’s born into the world alive,
    Is either a little Liberal,
    Or else a little Conservative!
    —Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)

    Come with me if you want to live.
    —James Cameron (b. 1954)
