Window/terms

Famous quotes containing the words window and/or terms:

“A big leather-bound volume makes an ideal razorstrap. A thin book is useful to stick under a table with a broken caster to steady it. A large, flat atlas can be used to cover a window with a broken pane. And a thick, old-fashioned heavy book with a clasp is the finest thing in the world to throw at a noisy cat.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

“Man is the only animal that can remain on friendly terms with the victims he intends to eat until he eats them.”
—Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
