Short Response

Famous quotes containing the words short and/or response:

“If true that notion, which but few contest,
That in the way of wit short things are best,
Then in good epigrams two virtues meet,
For ‘tis their glory to be short and sweet.”

“[In response to this question from an interviewer: “U. S. News and World Report described you this way: ‘She’s intolerant, preachy, judgmental and overbearing. She’s bright, articulate, passionate and kind.’ Is that an accurate description?”:]
It’s ... pretty good [ellipsis in original].”
—Joycelyn Elders (b. 1933)
