Famous quotes containing the words questions and/or asked:

    The wounded surgeon plies the steel
    That questions the distempered part;
    Beneath the bleeding hands we feel
    The sharp compassion of the healer’s art
    Resolving the enigma of the fever chart.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    Man with lantern: Who are you?
    Captain: The Flying Cloud. 220 days out of New York and 50 days trying to find your blasted harbor.
    Man with lantern: Nobody asked you to come.
    Captain: Got anything in this hog-end of the world except fog?
    Man with lantern: Sure, we’ve got gold, fountains of gold.
    Ben Hecht (1893–1964)
