Precious Paris

Famous quotes containing the words precious and/or paris:

    In my practice I’ve seen how people have allowed their humanity to drain away. Only it happens slowly instead of all at once. I didn’t seem to mind.... All of us, a little bit. We harden our hearts. Grow callous. Only when we have to fight to stay human do we realize how precious it is to us, how dear.
    Daniel Mainwaring (1902–1977)

    Let us be realistic and demand the impossible.
    [Soyons rĂ©alistes, demandons l’impossible.]
    —Graffito. Paris ‘68, ch. 2, Marc Rohan (1988)
