Intimate

Famous quotes containing the word intimate:

    who would connive
    in civilized outrage
    yet understand the exact
    and tribal, intimate revenge.
    Seamus Heaney (b. 1939)

    Crime seems to change character when it crosses a bridge or a tunnel. In the city, crime is taken as emblematic of class and race. In the suburbs, though, it’s intimate and psychological—resistant to generalization, a mystery of the individual soul.
    Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)

    The intimate revelations of young men, or at least the terms in which they express them, are usually plagiaristic and marred by obvious suppressions.
    F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
