Breathed

Famous quotes containing the word breathed:

    I could draw Bloom County with my nose and pay my cleaning lady to write it, and I’d bet I wouldn’t lose 10% of my papers over the next twenty years. Such is the nature of comic-strips. Once established, their half-life is usually more than nuclear waste.
    —Berkeley Breathed (b. 1957)

    Where a multitude of men breathed joy and woe
    Long ago;
    Lust of glory pricked their hearts up, dread of shame
    Struck them tame;
    Robert Browning (1812–1889)

    Success and failure on the public level never mattered much to me, in fact I feel more at home with the latter, having breathed deep of its vivifying air all my writing life up to the last couple of years.
    Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)
