Famous quotes containing the words surviving, titles and/or fragments:

    “The misery of the middle-aged woman is a grey and hopeless thing, born of having nothing to live for, of disappointment and resentment at having been gypped by consumer society, and surviving merely to be the butt of its unthinking scorn.”
    —Germaine Greer (b. 1939)

    “Lear. Dost thou call me fool, boy?
    Fool. All thy other titles thou hast given away; that thou wast born with.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “It is not, truly speaking, the labour that is divided; but the men: divided into mere segments of men—broken into small fragments and crumbs of life, so that all the little piece of intelligence that is left in a man is not enough to make a pin, or a nail, but exhausts itself in making the point of a pin or the head of a nail.”
    —John Ruskin (1819–1900)
