Piper Quotations
When you're asked to fly a 747 you better at least be able to fly a Piper cub.
Edward James Olmos
The rain, which had continued yesterday and last night, ceased this morning. We then proceeded, and after passing two small islands about ten miles further, stopped for the night at Piper's landing, opposite another island.
Meriwether Lewis
Piper insisted she had to be out of breath when we played this one scene, so she ran around the block. Thank God she wasn't doing a crucifixtion scene; we would have had to nail her to the wall.
Dick York

Oliver Joseph Lodge
Religion, like water, may be free, but when they pipe it to you, you've got to help pay for piping. And the Piper!
Abigail Van Buren
I see Christ as the incarnation of the piper who is calling us. He dances that shape and pattern which is at the heart of our reality.
Sydney Carter

Piper Laurie
The publisher is a middleman, he calls the tune to which the whole rest of the trade dances; and he does so because he pays the piper.
