Famous quotes containing the words russell b, russell and/or long:

    I worry about people who get born nowadays, because they get born into such tiny families—sometimes into no family at all. When you’re the only pea in the pod, your parents are likely to get you confused with the Hope Diamond. And that encourages you to talk too much.
    Russell Baker (b. 1925)

    No man is born into the world, whose work
    Is not born with him; there is always work,
    And tools to work withal, for those who will:
    And blessèd are the horny hands of toil!
    —James Russell Lowell (1819–1891)

    Let the long contention cease! Geese are swans, and swans are geese. Let them have it how they will! Thou art tired; best be still.
    Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)
