Couple

Famous quotes containing the word couple:

    All Presidents start out to run a crusade but after a couple of years they find they are running something less heroic and much more intractable: namely the presidency. The people are well cured by then of election fever, during which they think they are choosing Moses. In the third year, they look on the man as a sinner and a bumbler and begin to poke around for rumours of another Messiah.
    Alistair Cooke (b. 1908)

    You and I were a couple of drunks on the sea of booze and the boat sank.
    —J.P. (James Pinckney)

    For a couple with young children, divorce seldom comes as a “solution” to stress, only as a way to end one form of pain and accept another.
    Fred Rogers (20th century)
