Cents

Famous quotes containing the word cents:

“Baltimore lay very near the immense protein factory of Chesapeake Bay, and out of the bay it ate divinely. I well recall the time when prime hard crabs of the channel species, blue in color, at least eight inches in length along the shell, and with snow-white meat almost as firm as soap, were hawked in Hollins Street of Summer mornings at ten cents a dozen.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)

“Take 50 cents ... take it out of the Ladies’ Fidelity. They never keep any books.”
—Frank Butler (1890–1967)

“He will enter your hands
as easily as ten cents used to
bring forth a Coke.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
