Things People Said: Independence

Things People Said

A collection of quotes I've kept for a while now. I add new ones fairly regularly, generally once or twice every week. Topics will be anything I find interesting that day, from famous writers, online forums, and everyone in between. Mail me quotes you find interesting, or leave them in comments.

A tremendous debt is owed to the following:

Independence

And he has become so independent. He didn't want his mother to help him even with his English. He had to read Oscar Wilde, he said. My wife immediately went gaga about Wilde's wit and humour. But he cut her short. "Where's the wit and humour in The Picture of Dorian Gray?" he asked. That was the first time we heard he had read Dorian Gray. They had to do it in class, he said. And we didn't know it until last night.

-- Rana, Shakespeare Mocked
