Hundreds

Famous quotes containing the word hundreds:

    I may be able to spot arrowheads on the desert but a refrigerator is a jungle in which I am easily lost. My wife, however, will unerringly point out that the cheese or the leftover roast is hiding right in front of my eyes. Hundreds of such experiences convince me that men and women often inhabit quite different visual worlds. These are differences which cannot be attributed to variations in visual acuity. Man and women simply have learned to use their eyes in very different ways.
    Edward T. Hall (b. 1914)

    Manhattan. Sometimes from beyond the skyscrapers, across the hundreds of thousands of high walls, the cry of a tugboat finds you in your insomnia in the middle of the night, and you remember that this desert of iron and cement is an island.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)

    Geroge Peatty: I’m gonna have it, Sherry. Hundreds of thousands, maybe a half million.
    Sherry Peatty: Of course you are, darling. Did you put the right address on the envelope when you sent it to the North Pole?
    Stanley Kubrick (b. 1928)
