Surprise Appearance

Famous quotes containing the words surprise and/or appearance:

“It’s such a surprise for the Eastern eyes to see,
That though the English are effete
They’re quite impervious to heat.”
—Noël Coward (1899–1973)

“The complaint ... about modern steel furniture, modern glass houses, modern red bars and modern streamlined trains and cars is that all these objets modernes, while adequate and amusing in themselves, tend to make the people who use them look dated. It is an honest criticism. The human race has done nothing much about changing its own appearance to conform to the form and texture of its appurtenances.”
—E.B. (Elwyn Brooks)
