Mug Quotes

As things are, and as fundamentally they must always be, poetry is not a career, but a mug's game. No honest poet can ever feel quite sure of the permanent value of what he has written: He may have wasted his time and messed up his life for nothing.
T. S. Eliot

Life, Time, Poetry

There are popular celebrities, there are unpopular celebrities and then there are the walking dead. You know the walking dead when you see them: they look like Mel Gibson, still striving for drunken charm in an L.A.

Jeffrey Kluger

After, Dead, Getting

Barbara Ehrenreich

Poor, Away, Might

Chris Kattan

Happy, Fun, Light

On my first day in New York a guy asked me if I knew where Central Park was. When I told him I didn't he said, 'Do you mind if I mug you here?'.
Paul Merton

Mind, Him, Said

This mug of mine is as plain as a barn door. Why should people pay 35 cents to look at it?
Spencer Tracy

When we did the sign outside, we did not do the cigarette or the mug of beer because it was going to be outside. I wasn't sure if the city would object.
John Gates

Beer, Sure, City
