Famous quotes containing the word names:

    “A name? Oh, Jesus Christ. Ah, God, I’ve been called by a million names all my life. I don’t want a name. I’m better off with a grunt or a groan for a name.”
    —Bernardo Bertolucci (b. 1940)

    “All the names of good and evil are parables: they do not declare, but only hint. Whoever among you seeks knowledge of them is a fool!”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    “Shut out that stealing moon,
    She wears too much the guise she wore
    Before our lutes were strewn
    With years-deep dust, and names we read
    On a white stone were hewn.”
    —Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
