Breathe

Famous quotes containing the word breathe:

    “No one—man or woman—can have it all without support from the workplace and genuine help at home. Women, regardless of how they have chosen to lead their lives, can now breathe a collective sigh of relief that superwoman is dead.”

    “I have seen a medicine
    That’s able to breathe life into a stone.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “The world is eaten up by boredom.... You can’t see it all at once. It is like dust. You go about and never notice, you breathe it in, you eat and drink it. It is sifted so fine, it doesn’t even grit on your teeth. But stand still for an instant and there it is, coating your face and hands. To shake off this drizzle of ashes you must be for ever on the go. And so people are always “on the go.””
    —Georges Bernanos (1888–1948)
