Famous quotes containing the words kinds of, kinds and/or racks:

    There used to be two kinds of kisses. First when girls were kissed and deserted; second, when they were engaged. Now there’s a third kind, where the man is kissed and deserted. If Mr. Jones of the nineties bragged he’d kissed a girl, everyone knew he was through with her. If Mr. Jones of 1919 brags the same everyone knows it’s because he can’t kiss her any more. Given a decent start any girl can beat a man nowadays.
    F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)

    Don’t matter how much money you got, there’s only two kinds of people: there’s saved people and there’s lost people.
    Bob Dylan [Robert Allen Zimmerman] (b. 1941)

    Man’s feeble race what ills await!
    Labour, and Penury, the racks of Pain,
    Disease, and Sorrow’s weeping train,
    And Death, sad refuge from the storms of Fate!
    Thomas Gray (1716–1771)
