Break Contracts

Famous quotes containing the words break and/or contracts:

“Then there is confusion
Even out of happiness, like a smoke
The words get heavy, some topple over, you break others.
And outlines disappear once again.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)

“If love closes, the self contracts and hardens: the mind having nothing else to occupy its attention and give it that change and renewal it requires, busies itself more and more with self-feeling, which takes on narrow and disgusting forms, like avarice, arrogance and fatuity.”
—Charles Horton Cooley (1864–1929)
