Famous quotes containing the words work and/or performed:
“Writing is not like painting where you add. It is not what you put on the canvas that the reader sees. Writing is more like a sculpture where you remove, you eliminate in order to make the work visible. Even those pages you remove somehow remain.”
—Elie Wiesel (b. 1928)
“We are responsible for actions performed in response to circumstances for which we are not responsible.”
—Allan Massie (b. 1938)
