Big Thompson

Famous quotes containing the words big and/or thompson:

    Better to master a small skill than to accumulate a big fortune.
    Chinese proverb.

    Myths and legends die hard in America. We love them for the extra dimension they provide, the illusion of near-infinite possibility to erase the narrow confines of most men’s reality. Weird heroes and mould-breaking champions exist as living proof to those who need it that the tyranny of “the rat race” is not yet final.
    —Hunter S. Thompson (b. 1939)
