Famous quotes containing the words sixth, avenue and/or line:

    “The sixth age shifts
    Into the lean and slippered pantaloon,
    With spectacles on nose, and pouch on side,
    His youthful hose, well saved, a world too wide
    For his shrunk shank, and his big manly voice,
    Turning again toward childish treble, pipes
    And whistles in his sound.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Like art and politics, gangsterism is a very important avenue of assimilation into society.”
    —E.L. (Edgar Lawrence)

    “I love them
    for finding what
    I can’t find,
    and for loving me
    for the line I wrote,
    and for forgetting it....”
    —Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
