Famous quotes containing the words jacques and/or dubois:

    I’ve learned one thing about life. We’re a good deal like that ball, dancing on the fountain. We know as little about the forces that move us, and move the world around us, as that empty ball does.
    Ardel Wray, Edward Dien, and Jacques Tourneur. Dr. Galbraith(James Bell)

    These doctors, they’ve got no mercy on you, ‘specially if you’re black. Ah! I’ve seen ‘em, many a time, but, they never come after me, I never gave ‘em a chance—not the first time.
    —Sylvia Dubois (1788?–1889)
