Famous quotes containing the words top, hits and/or record:

    I sweep. One gyrates like a top and falls
    And stunned, stone blind, and deaf
    Buzzes its frightful F
    And dies between three cannibals.
    Karl Shapiro (b. 1913)

    From a hasty glance through the various tests I figure it out that I would be classified in Group B, indicating “Low Average Ability,” reserved usually for those just learning to speak the English Language and preparing for a career of holding a spike while another man hits it.
    Robert Benchley (1889–1945)

    The house seems heavier
    Now that they have gone away.
    In fact it emptied in record time.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
