Keeping Left Takes

Famous quotes containing the words keeping, left and/or takes:

    Children ... seldom have a proper sense of their own tragedy, discounting and keeping hidden the true horrors of their short lives, humbly imagining real calamity to be some prestigious drama of the grown-up world.

    To have friends, you know, one need only be good-natured; but when a man has no enemy left there must be something mean about him.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    Commuter—one who spends his life
    In riding to and from his wife;
    A man who shaves and takes a train,
    And then rides back to shave again.
    —E.B. (Elwyn Brooks)
