Famous quotes containing the words carroll and/or avenue:

    As one who strives a hill to climb,
    Who never climbed before:
    Who finds it in a little time,
    Grow every moment less sublime,
    And votes the thing a bore:
    —Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    I hate to do what everybody else is doing. Why, only last week, on Fifth Avenue and some cross streets, I noticed that every feminine citizen of these United States wore an artificial posy on her coat or gown. I came home and ripped off every one of the really lovely refrigerator blossoms that were sewn on my own bodices.
    Carolyn Wells (1862–1942)
