Cook

Famous quotes containing the word cook:

    A monarchy is like a man-of-war—bad shots between wind and water hurt it exceedingly; there is a danger of capsizing. But democracy is a raft. You cannot easily overturn it. It is a wet place, but it is a pretty safe one.
    —Flavius Josephus Cook (1838–1901)

    I love it, I love it; and who shall dare
    To chide me for loving that old arm-chair?
    —Eliza Cook (1818–1889)

    There’s terrific merit in having no sense of humour, no sense of irony, practically no sense of anything at all. If you’re born with these so-called defects you have a very good chance of getting to the top.
    —Peter Cook (b. 1937)
