Famous quotes containing the word breton:

    No rules exist, and examples are simply life-savers answering the appeals of rules making vain attempts to exist.
    —AndrĂ© Breton (1896–1966)

    The approval of the public is to be avoided like the plague. It is absolutely essential to keep the public from entering if one wishes to avoid confusion. I must add that the public must be kept panting in expectation at the gate by a system of challenges and provocations.
    —AndrĂ© Breton (1896–1966)

    Much ado there was, God wot,
    He would love and she would not.
    She said, never man was true;
    He said, none was false to you.
    —Nicholas Breton (1542–1626)
