Famous quotes containing the words list of, list, cattle and/or breeds:

    “Love’s boat has been shattered against the life of everyday. You and I are quits, and it’s useless to draw up a list of mutual hurts, sorrows, and pains.”
    —Vladimir Mayakovsky (1893–1930)

    “Every morning I woke in dread, waiting for the day nurse to go on her rounds and announce from the list of names in her hand whether or not I was for shock treatment, the new and fashionable means of quieting people and of making them realize that orders are to be obeyed and floors are to be polished without anyone protesting and faces are to be made to be fixed into smiles and weeping is a crime.”
    —Janet Frame (b. 1924)

    “Can even death dry up
    These new delighted lakes, conclude
    Our kneeling as cattle by all-generous waters?”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    “The life of pleasure breeds boredom. The life of duty breeds resentment.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
