Hand Point Break

Famous quotes containing the words hand, point and/or break:

    “We unlearn. I am a shore
    rocking you off. You break from me. I choose

    and hand you off, trembling the selves we lose.
    Go child, who is my sin and nothing more.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “As for work, without it, without painstaking work, any writer or artist definitely remains a dilettante; there’s no point in waiting for so-called blissful moments, for inspiration; if it comes, so much the better—but you keep working anyway.”
    —Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev (1818–1883)

    “Hours before dawn we were woken by the quake.
    My house was on a cliff. The thing could take
    Bookloads off shelves, break bottles in a row.
    Then the long pause and then the bigger shake.
    It seemed the best thing to be up and go.”
    —William Empson (1906–1984)
