Famous quotes containing the word names:

    “It is a sad truth, but we have lost the faculty of giving lovely names to things. Names are everything. I never quarrel with actions. My one quarrel is with words.... The man who could call a spade a spade should be compelled to use one. It is the only thing he is fit for.”
    —Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    “Almanacked, their names live; they
    Have slipped their names, and stand at ease,
    Or gallop for what must be joy,”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1985)
