Exploit

Famous quotes containing the word exploit:

“Abused as we abuse it at present, dramatic art is in no sense cathartic; it is merely a form of emotional masturbation.... It is the rarest thing to find a player who has not had his character affected for the worse by the practice of his profession. Nobody can make a habit of self-exhibition, nobody can exploit his personality for the sake of exercising a kind of hypnotic power over others, and remain untouched by the process.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

“A modern fleet of ships does not so much make use of the sea as exploit a highway.”
—Joseph Conrad (1857–1924)

“Poets treat their experiences shamelessly: they exploit them.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
