wary quotes

  • I can't help feeling wary when I hear anything said about the masses. First you take their faces from 'em by calling 'em the masses and then you accuse 'em of not having any faces.

    -J(ohn) B(oynton) Priestley
    Saturn Over theWater, ch.2.

  • The 50s face was angry, the 60s face was well-fed, the 70s face was foxy. Perhaps it was the right expression: there was a lot to be waryabout.

    - Keith Spencer Waterhouse
      In the Observer Magazine, 30 Dec.
