Famous quotes containing the words silly, roll and/or call:

    What a vast traffic is drove, what a variety of labour is performed in the world to the maintenance of thousands of families that altogether depend on two silly if not odious customs; the taking of snuff and smoking of tobacco; both of which it is certain do infinitely more hurt than good to those that are addicted to them!
    Bernard Mandeville (1670–1733)

    I know it’s only rock ‘n’ roll but I like it.
    Mick Jagger (b. 1943)

    For if it prosper, none dare call it treason.
