Quotations

  • 1920: "This is the last straw. In your infatuation for this man — a man who is notorious for his excesses, a man your father would not have allowed to so much as mention your name — you have reflected the demi-monde rather than the circles in which you have presumably grown up."The Offshore Pirate by F. Scott Fitzgerald
  • 1999: "The Hempshocks' sheep were notoriously the finest for miles around: shaggy-coated and intelligent (for sheep), with curling horns and sharp hooves."Neil Gaiman, Stardust, pg. 30 (2001 Perennial edition)
