Famous quotes containing the words distinct, turkish and/or alphabet:
“Words are made for a certain exactness of thought, as tears are for a certain degree of pain. What is least distinct cannot be named; what is clearest is unutterable.”
—René Daumal (1908–1944)
“A Turkish bath—that marble paradise of sherbert and sodomy.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
“I believe the alphabet is no longer considered an essential piece of equipment for traveling through life. In my day it was the keystone to knowledge. You learned the alphabet as you learned to count to ten, as you learned “Now I lay me” and the Lord’s Prayer and your father’s and mother’s name and address and telephone number, all in case you were lost.”
—Eudora Welty (b. 1909)
