William Arthur Ward
“Why indeed must ''God'' be a noun? Why not a verb - the most active and dynamic of all.”
Mary Daly
“Marriage is not a noun; it's a verb. It isn't something you get. It's something you do. It's the way you love your partner every day.”
Barbara De Angelis
“Write with nouns and verbs, not with adjectives and adverbs. The adjectivehasn't been built that can pull a weak or inaccurate noun out of a tightplace.”
William Strunk Jr. E.B. White
“I've always loved the flirtatious tango of consonants and vowels, the sturdy dependability of nouns and capricious whimsy of verbs, the strutting pageantry of the adjective and the flitting evanescence of the adverb, all kept safe and orderly by those reliable little policemen, punctuation marks. Wow! Think I got my ass kicked in high school?”
Dennis Miller
“Think Tank, noun: The shower.”
Craig Bruce
