Hack

Famous quotes containing the word hack:

    Painting consumes labour not disproportionate to its effect; but a fellow will hack half a year at a block of marble to make something in stone that hardly resembles a man. The value of statuary is owing to its difficulty. You would not value the finest head cut upon a carrot.
    Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)

    I was gonna call it “I Love You, Samantha” but some old hack got there before me.
    Blake Edwards (b. 1922)
