Famous quotes containing the words special and/or forces:

    “In this century the writer has carried on a conversation with madness. We might almost say of the twentieth-century writer that he aspires to madness. Some have made it, of course, and they hold special places in our regard. To a writer, madness is a final distillation of self, a final editing down. It’s the drowning out of false voices.”
    —Don Delillo (b. 1926)

    “Although Freud said happiness is composed of love and work, reality often forces us to choose love or work.”
    —Letty Cottin Pogrebin (20th century)
