Call

Famous quotes containing the word call:

    The interest in life does not lie in what people do, nor even in their relations to each other, but largely in the power to communicate with a third party, antagonistic, enigmatic, yet perhaps persuadable, which one may call life in general.
    Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)

    It’s apparent that we can’t proceed any further without a name for this institutionalized garrulousness, this psychological patter, this need to catalogue the ego’s condition. Let’s call it psychobabble, this spirit which now tyrannizes conversation in the seventies.
    Richard Dean Rosen (b. 1949)

    What we call the beginning is often the end
    And to make an end is to make a beginning.
    The end is where we start from.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
