Difference

Famous quotes containing the word difference:

    “Anybody who knows the difference between the kind of conversation you have walking in the woods and the kind of conversation you have between the segments of a show on Nickelodeon can tell you that quality time exists. Quality time is when you and your child are together and keenly aware of each other. You are enjoying the same thing at the same time, even if it is just being in a room or going for a drive in the car. You are somehow in tune, even while daring to be silent together.”
    —Louise Lague (20th century)

    “The North will at least preserve your flesh for you; Northerners are pale for good and all. There’s very little difference between a dead Swede and a young man who’s had a bad night. But the Colonial is full of maggots the day after he gets off the boat.”
    —Louis-Ferdinand Céline (1894–1961)

    “The difference between our decadence and the Russians’ is that while theirs is brutal, ours is apathetic.”
    —James Thurber (1894–1961)
