Famous quotes containing the words boy, named and/or goo:
“Mother love has been much maligned. An over mothered boy may go through life expecting each new woman to love him the way his mother did. Her love may make any other love seem inadequate. But an unloved boy would be even more likely to idealize love. I don’t think it’s possible for a mother or father to love a child too much.
”
—Frank Pittman (20th century)
“The punters know that the horse named Morality rarely gets past the post, whereas the nag named Self-Interest always runs a good race.”

“It has been an unchallengeable American doctrine that cranberry sauce, a pink goo with overtones of sugared tomatoes, is a delectable necessity of the Thanksgiving board and that turkey is uneatable without it....

—Alistair Cooke (b. 1908)
