A Quote by Chris Van Allsburg

I love the idea of a tiny window between the back stoop and the pantry, where the milkman would pass through the cheese. But of course, there is no milkman anymore. So somebody coming by the house and seeing the window would say, 'Oh, that must be original, because that's where the milkman passed the cheese through to the pantry.'

I seen her with the milkman, riding down the street. When you're through with my baby, milkman, send her home to me.

I was living in a suburban town north of London, dutifully practicing my Mozart sonatas. And the milkman who delivered the milk in the mornings was kind of milkman by day, composer-artist by night.

Max Richter

She divorced her husband, y' know. I never knew him, it was before I met Jane. Apparently she came back from work one mornin' an' found her husband in bed with the milkman. With the milkman, honest to God. Well, apparently, from that day forward Jane was a feminist. An' I've noticed, she never takes milk in her tea.

Willy Russell

I'm a big fan of domino masks, like Zorro, or Robin. You could put a domino mask on anything, and it becomes a superhero. You put a domino mask on a milkman, and he becomes, like, Super Milkman.

Gerard Way

Fame it's like... When you look through a window, say you pass a little pub, or an inn. You look through the window and you see people talking and carrying on. You,can watch outside the window and see them all being very real with each other. But when you walk into the room, it's over. I don't pay any attention to it.

Bob Dylan

I love cheese. It intensified when I moved to France. It felt like my cheese shop lady was my dealer because every week I'd say, 'I need this cheese, I need that cheese', and she'd cut me enough for the week but I'd finish a whole piece in one go.

My father was a milkman. So, I delivered milk.

Karl Malden

I remember the fact that milk was delivered every day by a milkman. In summer, my mother would make what now seem in my middle-aged imagination the most delicious iced milkshakes.

Simon McBurney

Don't worry, goat boy. The milkman is dead.

Rick Riordan

Democracy means that when there's a knock in the door at 3 am, it's probably the milkman.

Winston Churchill

Reachable, near and not lost, there remained in the midst of the losses this one thing: language. It, the language, remained, not lost, yes, in spite of everything. But it had to pass through its own answerlessness, pass through frightful muting, pass through the thousand darknesses of deathbringing speech. It passed through and gave back no words for that which happened; yet it passed through this happening. Passed through and could come to light again, “enriched” by all this.

Paul Celan

Democracy means that if the doorbell rings in the early hours, it is likely to be the milkman.

Winston Churchill

I walked in on my wife and the milkman, the first thing she says is "don't tell the butcher"!

Rodney Dangerfield

Sometimes I think I'll go off and be a milkman or a greengrocer, some easy job.

Roger Rees

Freedom is when one hears the bell at seven o'clock in the morning and knows it is the milkman and not the Gestapo.

Georges Bidault

Technology has grown so much that there's a whole idea of gluttony. Sometimes you get carried away because you can have a camera go through the window, but do I need a camera go through the window? Those choices are up to the director.

Justin Lin
