10 QUOTES WITH «CATALOGUE»

Famous quotes and sentences with the word catalogue.

Jensen Ackles

2

Benedict Cumberbatch

'Sherlock' fans are, by and large, an intelligent breed, so they've gone through my back catalogue and got what I've done, why and how I've done it. There is some obsessive behaviour, but I worry for them rather than me.

Fred Frith

The combination of three chords and the right lyrical couplet can be as heavy as anything in the Metallica catalogue.

9

Eleanor Roosevelt

I once had a rose named after me and I was very flattered. But I was not pleased to read the description in the catalogue: no good in a bed, but fine up against a wall.
