Nickel Plate

Famous quotes containing the words nickel and/or plate:

    Castro couldn’t even go to the bathroom unless the Soviet Union put the nickel in the toilet.
    Richard M. Nixon (1913–1995)

    Our press is certainly bankrupt in the “thrill of awe”Motherwise reverence: reverence for nickel plate and brummagem. Let us sincerely hope that this fact will remain a fact forever; for to my mind a discriminating irreverence is the creator and protector of human liberty.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
