Famous quotes containing the word coming:
“Obsession is the single most wasteful human activity, because with an obsession you keep coming back and back and back to the same question and never get an answer.”
—Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
“Like snow having second thoughts and coming back
To be wary about this, to embellish that, as though life were a party
At which work got done.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“Let us pardon him his hope of a vain apocalypse, and of a second coming in great triumph upon the clouds of heaven. Perhaps these were the errors of others rather than his own; and if it be true that he himself shared the general illusion, what matters it, since his dream rendered him strong against death, and sustained him in a struggle to which he might otherwise have been unequal?”
—Ernest Renan (1823–1892)
