Famous quotes containing the words spare and/or bits:
“If, as they say, God spanked the town
For being over-frisky,
Why did He burn all the churches down
And spare Hotaling’s Whiskey?”
—For the State of California, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
“They’re semiotic phantoms, bits of deep cultural imagery that have split off and taken on a life of their own, like those Jules Verne airships that those old Kansas farmers were always seeing.... Semiotic ghosts. Fragments of the Mass Dream, whirling past in the wind of my passage.”
—William Gibson (b. 1948)
