Famous quotes containing the words gold, crew and/or conducted:
“Holland is a dream, Monsieur, a dream of gold and smoke—smokier by day, more gilded by night.

—Albert Camus (1913–1960)
““10 April 1800—
Blacks rebellious. Crew uneasy. Our linguist says
their moaning is a prayer for death,
ours and their own.”
—Robert Earl Hayden (1913–1980)
“As a practicing member of several oppressed minority groups, I feel that I have on the whole conducted myself with the utmost decorum. I have ... refrained from marching, chanting ... or in any other way making anything that could even vaguely be construed as a fuss.”
—Fran Lebowitz (b. 1950)
