Break

Famous quotes containing the word break:

    Why, what a wasp-stung and impatient fool
    Are thou to break into this woman’s mood,
    Tying thine ear to no tongue but thine own!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    God and Country are an unbeatable team; they break all records for oppression and bloodshed.
    Luis Buñuel (1900–1983)

    Without poets, without artists, men would soon weary of nature’s monotony. The sublime idea men have of the universe would collapse with dizzying speed. The order which we find in nature, and which is only an effect of art, would at once vanish. Everything would break up in chaos. There would be no seasons, no civilization, no thought, no humanity; even life would give way, and the impotent void would reign everywhere.
    Guillaume Apollinaire (1880–1918)
