Famous quotes containing the words adverb and/or phrase:
“You expect far too much of a first sentence. Think of it as analogous to a good country breakfast: what we want is something simple, but nourishing to the imagination. Hold the philosophy, hold the adjectives, just give us a plain subject and verb and perhaps a wholesome, nonfattening adverb or two.”
—Larry McMurtry (b. 1936)
““Poor but happy” is not a phrase invented by a poor person.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
