Famous quotes containing the word names:

    All the names of good and evil are parables: they do not declare, but only hint. Whoever among you seeks knowledge of them is a fool!
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    No, no! I don’t, I don’t want to know your name. You don’t have a name, and I don’t have a name, either. No names here. Not one name.
    Bernardo Bertolucci (b. 1940)

    Oh yes, children often commit murders. And quite clever ones, too. Some murderers, particularly the distinguished ones who are going to make great names for themselves, start amazingly early.... Like mathematicians and musicians. Poets develop later.
    John Lee Mahin (1902–1984)
