Famous quotes containing the words total, force and/or includes:
“... geometry became a symbol for human relations, except that it was better, because in geometry things never go bad. If certain things occur, if certain lines meet, an angle is born. You cannot fail. It’s not going to fail; it is eternal. I found in rules of mathematics a peace and a trust that I could not place in human beings. This sublimation was total and remained total. Thus, I’m able to avoid or manipulate or process pain.”
—Louise Bourgeois (b. 1911)
“Every man who possibly can should force himself to a holiday of a full month in a year, whether he feels like taking it or not.”
—William James (1842–1910)
“Before devising any blueprint that includes the assumption of Having It All, we need to ask ... Why do we need Everything?”
—Letty Cottin Pogrebin (b. 1939)
