Famous quotes containing the words history, breast and/or cancer:

    Revolutions are the periods of history when individuals count most.
    Norman Mailer (b. 1923)

    Freedom is hunting, feeding, danger;
    that, that is freedom—that it is which makes
    the veins to swell, the breast to heave and glow
    Aye, that is freedom,—that is pleasure—life!
    Marie Lovell (1803–1877)

    The truth is that Mozart, Pascal, Boolean algebra, Shakespeare, parliamentary government, baroque churches, Newton, the emancipation of women, Kant, Marx, and Balanchine ballets don’t redeem what this particular civilization has wrought upon the world. The white race is the cancer of human history.
    Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
