Famous quotes containing the words comma and/or variants:
“I didnt have to think up so much as a comma or a semicolon; it was all given, straight from the celestial recording room. Weary, I would beg for a break, an intermission, time enough, lets say, to go to the toilet or take a breath of fresh air on the balcony. Nothing doing!”
—Henry Miller (18911980)
“Nationalist pride, like other variants of pride, can be a substitute for self-respect.”
—Eric Hoffer (19021983)
