Big South

Famous quotes containing the words big and/or south:

    “When he was a little boy
    Jesus was good all the time.
    No wonder that he grew up to be such a big shot
    who could forgive people so much.
    When he died everyone was mean.
    Later on he rose when no one else was looking.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “If you are one of the hewers of wood and drawers of small weekly paychecks, your letters will have to contain some few items of news or they will be accounted dry stuff.... But if you happen to be of a literary turn of mind, or are, in any way, likely to become famous, you may settle down to an afternoon of letter-writing on nothing more sprightly in the way of news than the shifting of the wind from south to south-east.”
    —Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
