Famous quotes containing the words china and/or vietnam:

    “It all ended with the circuslike whump of a monstrous box on the ear with which I knocked down the traitress who rolled up in a ball where she had collapsed, her eyes glistening at me through her spread fingers—all in all quite flattered, I think. Automatically, I searched for something to throw at her, saw the china sugar bowl I had given her for Easter, took the thing under my arm and went out, slamming the door.”
    —Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)

    “Above all, Vietnam was a war that asked everything of a few and nothing of most in America.”
    —Myra MacPherson, U.S. author. Long Time Passing: Vietnam and the Haunted Generation, epilogue (1984)
