Thomas Fitzmaurice Fitzgerald

Famous quotes containing the words thomas and/or fitzgerald:

    He holds the wire from this box of nerves
    Praising the moral error
    Of birth and death, the two sad knaves of thieves,
    And the hunger’s emperor;
    He pulls the chain, the cistern moves.
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    It’s a great advantage not to drink among hard-drinking people. You can hold your tongue and, moreover, you can time any little irregularity of your own so that everybody else is so blind that they don’t see or care.
    —F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
