Apprentices Act

Famous quotes containing the words apprentices and/or act:

“We are all apprentices in a craft where no one ever becomes a master.”
—Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)

“of artists dying in childbirth, wise-women charred at the stake,
centuries of books unwritten piled behind these shelves;
and we still have to stare into the absence
of men who would not, women who could not, speak
to our life—this still unexcavated hole
called civilization, this act of translation, this half-world.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
