Show Host

Famous quotes containing the words show and/or host:

    We need more of the Office Desk and less of the Show Window in politics. Let men in office substitute the midnight oil for the limelight.
    Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)

    Carlyle’s works, it is true, have not the stereotyped success which we call classic. They are a rich but inexpensive entertainment, at which we are not concerned lest the host has strained or impoverished himself to feed his guests. It is not the most lasting word, nor the loftiest wisdom, but rather the word which comes last.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
