Destroyed

Famous quotes containing the word destroyed:

“I shook off the sweat and the sun. I understood that I had destroyed the balance of the day, the exceptional silence of a beach where I had been happy.

—Albert Camus (1913–1960)

“People whose sensibility is destroyed by music in trains, airports, lifts, cannot concentrate on a Beethoven quartet.”

“The mind is “ashamed” of the blood. And the blood is destroyed by the mind, actually. Hence palefaces.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
