Office Box Number

Famous quotes containing the words office, box and/or number:

    We have two kinds of “conference.” One is that to which the office boy refers when he tells the applicant for a job that Mr. Blevitch is “in conference.” This means that Mr. Blevitch is in good health and reading the paper, but otherwise unoccupied. The other type of “conference” is bona fide in so far as it implies that three or four men are talking together in one room, and don’t want to be disturbed.
    Robert Benchley (1889–1945)

    Angel of hope and calendars, do you know despair?
    That hole I crawl into with a box of Kleenex....
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Envy has blackened every page of his history.... The future, in its justice, will number him among those men whom passions and an excess of activity have condemned to unhappiness, through the gift of genius.
    Eugène Delacroix (1798–1863)
