Carpenter

Famous quotes containing the word carpenter:

    This carpenter hadde wedded newe a wif
    Which that he loved more than his lif.
    Geoffrey Chaucer (1340?–1400)

    “But there’s always been rich and poor, and that’s all there is to it. And us two won’t change it, either.”
    The carpenter calmly puffs away: “Only the ones that likes it ought to be poor. Let the others have a try at it first. I ain’t got no liking for it. A fellow gets tired of it after a while.”
    Alfred Döblin (1878–1957)

    He came home.
    —John Carpenter (b. 1948)
