Bottom Pole

Famous quotes containing the words bottom and/or pole:

“All writers are vain, selfish and lazy, and at the very bottom of their motives lies a mystery. Writing a book is a long, exhausting struggle, like a long bout of some painful illness. One would never undertake such a thing if one were not driven by some demon whom one can neither resist nor understand.”
—George Orwell (1903–1950)

“I wouldn’t take the Pope too seriously. He’s a Pole first, a pope second, and maybe a Christian third.”
