Dos Introduced

Famous quotes containing the words dos and/or introduced:

    Display advertising and the movies, though they may dull the wits, certainly stimulate the eyes.
    —John Dos Passos (1896–1970)

    Books, gentlemen, are a species of men, and introduced to them you circulate in the “very best society” that this world can furnish, without the intolerable infliction of “dressing” to go into it. In your shabbiest coat and cosiest slippers you may socially chat even with the fastidious Earl of Chesterfield, and lounging under a tree enjoy the divinest intimacy with my late lord of Verulam.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
