Famous quotes containing the words diamond and/or bar:
“Every time an ashtray is missing from a hotel, they dont come looking for you. But let a diamond bracelet disappear in France and they shout John Robie, the Cat. You dont have to spend every day of your life proving your honesty, but I do.”
—John Michael Hayes (b.1919)
“I am of course confident that I will fulfil my tasks as a writer in all circumstancesfrom my grave even more successfully and more irrefutably than in my lifetime. No one can bar the road to truth, and to advance its cause I am prepared to accept even death. But may it be that repeated lessons will finally teach us not to stop the writers pen during his lifetime? At no time has this ennobled our history.”
—Alexander Solzhenitsyn (b. 1918)
