Leave

Famous quotes containing the word leave:

“The best part of myself, that’s what you are. Do you think I’m going to leave it to the vulgar pawing of a second-rate detective who thinks you’re a “dame”? Do you think I could bear the thought of him holding you in his arms, kissing you, loving you?”
—Jay Dratler, U.S. screenwriter, Samuel Hoffenstein (1889–1947)

“The first law of story-telling.... Every man is bound to leave a story better than he found it.”
—Humphrey, Mrs. Ward (1851–1920)

“One must leave one’s parents early, especially one’s mother. Mothers are never any good for their daughters. They forget they were just as ugly and silly and scraggy when they were little girls.”
—Robert, Mrs. Henrey (b. 1906)
