Famous quotes containing the words vehicle, plates, poland and/or series:
“How strange a vehicle it is, coming down unchanged from times of old romance, and so characteristically black, the way no other thing is black except a coffina vehicle evoking lawless adventures in the plashing stillness of night, and still more strongly evoking death itself, the bier, the dark obsequies, the last silent journey!”
—Thomas Mann (18751955)
“... What are you seeing out the window, lady?
What Ill be seeing more of in the years
To come as here I stand and go the round
Of many plates with towels many times.”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
“It is often said that Poland is a country where there is anti-semitism and no Jews, which is pathology in its purest state.”

“The professional celebrity, male and female, is the crowning result of the star system of a society that makes a fetish of competition. In America, this system is carried to the point where a man who can knock a small white ball into a series of holes in the ground with more efficiency than anyone else thereby gains social access to the President of the United States.”
—C. Wright Mills (19161962)
