Famous quotes containing the words big, fat and/or gypsy:
“A big leather-bound volume makes an ideal razorstrap. A thin book is useful to stick under a table with a broken caster to steady it. A large, flat atlas can be used to cover a window with a broken pane. And a thick, old-fashioned heavy book with a clasp is the finest thing in the world to throw at a noisy cat.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
“From this fat dungeon I could rise to skin
And human title, putting pig within.”
—Thom Gunn (b. 1929)
“You and you alone bring out the gypsy in me.”
—Ira Gershwin (1896–1983)
