Left Open

Famous quotes containing the words left and/or open:

    “Wild as it was, it was hard for me to get rid of the associations of the settlements. Any steady and monotonous sound, to which I did not distinctly attend, passed for a sound of human industry.... Our minds anywhere, when left to themselves, are always thus busily drawing conclusions from false premises.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Rita: Sadie, don’t open the door. It might be the guests.
    Sadie: It can’t be. It’s only seven.
    Rita: Well if it is, they mustn’t see you like that.
    Sadie: If they’re that early, they deserve what they get.”
    —Joseph L. Mankiewicz (1909–1993)
