Single Note

Famous quotes containing the words single and/or note:

    I don’t like your miserable lonely single “front name.” It is so limited, so meagre; it has no versatility; it is weighted down with the sense of responsibility; it is worn threadbare with much use; it is as bad as having only one jacket and one hat; it is like having only one relation, one blood relation, in the world. Never set a child afloat on the flat sea of life with only one sail to catch the wind.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    Poor old Jonathan Bing
    Went home and addressed a short note to the King:
    If you please will excuse me
    I won’t come to tea;
    For home’s the best place for
    All people like me!
    Beatrice Curtis Brown (1901–1974)
