Thompson

Famous quotes containing the word thompson:

“Myths and legends die hard in America. We love them for the extra dimension they provide, the illusion of near-infinite possibility to erase the narrow confines of most men’s reality. Weird heroes and mould-breaking champions exist as living proof to those who need it that the tyranny of “the rat race” is not yet final.”
—Hunter S. Thompson (b. 1939)

“She went her unremembering way,
She went and left in me
The pang of all the partings gone,
And partings yet to be.”
—Francis Thompson (1859–1907)

“As grand
And griefless as a rich man’s funeral.”
—Sidney Thompson Dobell (1824–1874)
