Top Spot

Famous quotes containing the words top and/or spot:

    “We fight our way through the massed and leveled collective safe taste of the Top 40, just looking for a little something we can call our own. But when we find it and jam the radio to hear it again it isn’t just ours—it is a link to thousands of others who are sharing it with us. As a matter of a single song this might mean very little; as culture, as a way of life, you can’t beat it.”
    —Greil Marcus (b. 1945)

    “A spot whereon the founders lived and died
    Seemed once more dear than life; ancestral trees,
    Or gardens rich in memory glorified
    Marriages, alliances, and families,
    And every bride’s ambition satisfied.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
