Shops Quotes - Page 15

• It has passed over mountain ranges and
  The waters of the seven seas.
  It has shown upon laborers in the fields,
  Into the windows of homes,
  And shops, and factories.
  
  It has beheld cities with gleaming towers,
  And also the hovels of the poor.
  It has been witness to both good and evil,
  The works of honest men and women and
  The conspiracy of knaves.
  
  It has seen marching armies, bomb-blasted villages
  And "the destruction that wasteth at noonday."
  Now, unsullied from its tireless journey,
  It comes to us,
  Messenger of the morning.
  Harbinger of a new day.

  Clinton Lee Scott

• Gossip isn't scandal and it's not merely malicious. It's chatter about the human race by lovers of the same. Gossip is the tool of the poet, the shop-talk of the scientist, and the consolation of the housewife, wit, tycoon and intellectual. It begins in the nursery and ends when speech is past.

• It is better to have a few forms well known than to teach a little about many hundred species.

The dozen animals would be your own.

• I never lived the life of 'Oh, you're so good-looking'. People thought I was a girl when I was little, because I looked like a girl-maybe because my mother would keep my hair really long in a bowl cut. I was in a coffee shop once and the waitress was like, 'What do you want, Miss?' I was 10 or 11-the worst age to have that happen. I had a jean jacket on and a Metallica pin. I thought I was really cool.
