Months Probation

Famous quotes containing the words months and/or probation:

    I have nothing but wastes and wilds of self-translation before me for many miserable months to come.
    Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)

    So that the life of a writer, whatever he might fancy to the contrary, was not so much a state of composition, as a state of warfare; and his probation in it, precisely that of any other man militant upon earth,—both depending alike, not half so much upon the degrees of his WIT—as his RESISTANCE.
    Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)
