Famous quotes containing the words fire and/or rescue:
“Perhaps my best years are gone. When there was a chance of happiness. But I wouldnt want them back. Not with the fire in me now.”
—Samuel Beckett (19061989)
“We live in a time which has created the art of the absurd. It is our art. It contains happenings, Pop art, camp, a theater of the absurd.... Do we have the art because the absurd is the patina of waste...? Or are we face to face with a desperate or most rational effort from the deepest resources of the unconscious of us all to rescue civilization from the pit and plague of its bedding?”
—Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
