Plate Called

Famous quotes containing the words plate and/or called:

“I sometimes have the sense that I live my life as a writer with my nose pressed against the wide, shiny plate glass window of the “mainstream” culture. The world seems full of straight, large-circulation, slick periodicals which wouldn’t think of reviewing my book and bookstores which will never order it.”
—Jan Clausen (b. 1943)

“Well, if I called the wrong number, why did you answer the phone?”
—James Thurber (1894–1961)
