Break

Famous quotes containing the word break:

    “There is immunity in reading, immunity in formal society, in office routine, in the company of old friends and in the giving of officious help to strangers, but there is no sanctuary in one bed from the memory of another. The past with its anguish will break through every defence-line of custom and habit; we must sleep and therefore we must dream.”
    —Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)

    “Oh, why can’t we break away from all this, just you and I, and lodge with my fleas in the hills?... I mean flee to my lodge in the hills.”
    —Arthur Sheekman, screenwriter, and Norman McLeod. Monkey Business (film)

    “Don’t waste time trying to break a man’s heart; be satisfied if you can just manage to chip it in a brand new place.”
    —Helen Rowland (1875–1950)
