Approaches

Famous quotes containing the word approaches:

    Someone approaches to say his life is ruined
    and to fall down at your feet
    and pound his head upon the sidewalk.

    The closer a man approaches tragedy the more intense is his concentration of emotion upon the fixed point of his commitment, which is to say the closer he approaches what in life we call fanaticism.

    Bloody men are like bloody buses—
    You wait for about a year
    And as soon as one approaches your stop
    Two or three others appear.
