Common Passport

Famous quotes containing the words common and/or passport:

    The common argument that crime is caused by poverty is a kind of slander on the poor.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)

    Whenever [Leonard Bernstein] entered or exited a country he would fill in on his passport form not composer or conductor, but musician. Of course people in the press spent a lot of Lenny’s life telling him what he should have done; he should have been a concert pianist, he should have composed more.... And people wouldn’t let him live his own life. But he created his own career, in his own image.
    John Mauceri (b. 1945)
