Primary Exhaust Rocker

Famous quotes containing the words primary, exhaust and/or rocker:

    Wilful sterility is, from the standpoint of the nation, from the standpoint of the human race, the one sin for which the penalty is national death, race death; a sin for which there is no atonement.... No man, no woman, can shirk the primary duties of life, whether for love of ease and pleasure, or for any other cause, and retain his or her self-respect.
    Theodore Roosevelt (1858–1919)

    Language is like soil. However rich, it is subject to erosion, and its fertility is constantly threatened by uses that exhaust its vitality. It needs constant re-invigoration if it is not to become arid and sterile.
    Elizabeth Drew (1887–1965)

    I’d been in Burbank for three days, trying to suffuse a really dull-looking rocker with charisma.... It is possible to photograph what isn’t there; it’s damned hard to do, and consequently a very marketable talent.
    William Gibson (b. 1948)
