Fatigue Failure

Famous quotes containing the words fatigue and/or failure:

“Never tire yourself more than necessary, even if you have to found a culture on the fatigue of your bones.”
—Antonin Artaud (1896–1948)

“I am dead against art’s being self-expression. I see an inherent failure in any story which fails to detach itself from the author—detach itself in the sense that a well-blown soap-bubble detaches itself from the bowl of the blower’s pipe and spherically takes off into the air as a new, whole, pure, iridescent world. Whereas the ill-blown bubble, as children know, timidly adheres to the bowl’s lip, then either bursts or sinks flatly back again.”
—Elizabeth Bowen (1899–1973)
