Aware

Famous quotes containing the word aware:

    The shutters were drawn and the undertaker wiped his feet—
    He was aware that this sort of thing had occurred before.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    What we have found in this country, and maybe we’re more aware of it now, is one problem that we’ve had, even in the best of times, and that is the people who are sleeping on the grates, the homeless, you might say, by choice.
    I am my brother’s keeper, and he’s sleeping pretty rough these days.
    Derek, Archbishop Worlock (b. 1920)

    Celebrity is a mask that eats into the face. As soon as one is aware of being “somebody,” to be watched and listened to with extra interest, input ceases, and the performer goes blind and deaf in his overanimation. One can either see or be seen.
    John Updike (b. 1932)
