She respected her husband in the same way as she respected the General Post Office, as something large, secure and fixed: and though she knew the small number of his talents she appreciated his abstract value as a male.
- James Joyce
I don't film messages. I let the post office take care of those.
- Bernardo Bertolucci
Maggie went out of doors to wash the windows and father came out into the kitchen and said he did not know whether he would go down to the post office or not. And then I sprinkled some handkerchiefs to iron.
- Lizzie Andrew Borden
Now I have to have the biggest P.O. box in the entire post office to get all the manuscripts coming in.
- Susie Bright
In the morning I was still alive. Maybe I'll write a novel, I thought. And then I did. (Post Office, pg. 196)
- Charles Bukowski
About my boss, Tyler tells me, if I'm really angry, I should go to the post office and fill out a change-of-address card and have all his mail forwarded to Rugby, North Dakota.
- Chuck Palahniuk
Mail your packages early so the post office can lose them in time for Christmas.
- Johnny Carson
Married and divorced, three beautiful daughters, two in college. The other one is 16, lives with her mom. I'm 46, I've worked for the Post Office for 18 years, seven facilities in three states.
- Arthur Godfrey
I had an uncle who was a postal official at the Polish post office in Gdansk. He was one of the defenders of the Polish postal service and, after it capitulated, was shot by the Germans under the provisions of martial law. Suddenly he was no longer a member of the family, and we were no longer allowed to play with his children.
- Gunter Grass
My acting ability would have sent me back to the post office. It was my singing that got me jobs. Ironically, now, people think of me as an actor and don't know me much as a singer.
- Robert Guillaume
I mean you might say he had a travelling post office, but also Barney was very, very active. He was a legal officer for the NAACP and they had a lot of problems after Pease.
- Betty Hill
One of the things the government can't do is run anything. The only things our government runs are the post office and the railroads, and both of them are bankrupt.
- Lee Iacocca
LA isn't a walking city, or a subway city, so if someone isn't in my house or my car we'll never be together, not even for a moment. And just to be absolutely sure of that, when I leave my car my iPhone escorts me, letting everyone else in the post office know that I'm not really with them, I'm with my own people, who are so hilarious that I can't help smiling to myself as I text them back.
- Miranda July
The six squares of our love didn't add up to a cube. Still, I took the oddly-shaped box down to the post office and tried to mail it into the future, when I'd be more prepared to open it.
- Jarod Kintz
It was Miss Stephanie's pleasure to tell us: this morning Mr. Bob Ewell stopped Atticus on the post office corner, spat in his face, and told him he'd get him if it took the rest of
his life.
- Harper Lee
To grasp the true meaning of socialism, imagine a world where everything is designed by the post office, even the sleaze.
- P J Orourke
I grew up in a house with no running water, 16 miles from the closest place that had a post office. I had a very parochial view of the world.
- Rick Perry
The way I understand it, the Russians are sort of a combination of evil and incompetence... sort of like the Post Office with tanks.
- Emo Philips
The right way to reign in healthcare costs is not by applying more government and more controls and making it more like the post office, it's by making it more like a consumer-driven market.
- Mitt Romney
The owner of the Post Office was called Maurice. A sixtyish-year-old with a large red nose that was pebble-dashed with broken capillaries, and a smooth bald head with a fuzz of grey hair around the side like the tide mark on a dirty bath. He had a gruff manner, distrusting eyes and a cough like kicked gravel.
- R D Ronald
Know the official post office abbreviations for all 50 states without having to consult a list.
- Marilyn Vos Savant
The kids who leave their favorite authors behind do not in fact leave us utterly abandoned, but in due time drive children of their own to the bookstore and the post office.
- Jerry Spinelli
There's nothing perplexing to me about a leafy shrub evolving out of the big bang, but that the post office exists because carbon exploded out of a supernova is a phenomenon so outrageous it makes my head twitch.
- Steve Toltz
I still have my unemployment books and I remember when I worked for the sanitation department and the post office.
- Denzel Washington
I've worked in a factory. I was a garbage man. I worked in a post office. It's not that long ago. I like to think that I'm just a regular guy.
- Denzel Washington
Lord Chesterfield said that since he had had the full use of his reason nobody had heard him laugh. I don't suppose you have read Lord Chesterfield's 'Letters To His Son'?
...Well, of course I hadn't. Bertram Wooster does not read other people's letters. If I were employed in the post office I wouldn't even read the postcards.
