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

    A country grows in history not only because of the heroism of its troops on the field of battle, it grows also when it turns to justice and to right for the conservation of its interests.
    Aristide Briand (1862–1932)

    His breast was deep and white,
    cold and caressable;
    his eyes were red glass,
    much to be desired.
    Elizabeth Bishop (1911–1979)

    Madness is locked beneath. It goes into tissues, is swallowed by the cells. The cells go mad. Cancer is their flag. Cancer is the growth of madness denied.
    Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
