Famous quotes containing the words nose and/or bullet:
“Talk ought always to run obliquely, not nose to nose with no chance of mental escape.”
—Frank Moore Colby (18651925)
“Consider his life which was valueless
In terms of employment, hotel ledgers, news files.
Consider. One bullet in ten thousand kills a man.
Ask. Was so much expenditure justified
On the death of one so young and so silly
Lying under the olive tree, O world, O death?”
—Stephen Spender (19091995)
