Famous quotes containing the words main and/or draw:

    “But the main things about a man are his eyes and his feet. He should be able to see the world and go after it.”
    —Alfred Döblin (1878–1957)

    “The moments of the past do not remain still; they retain in our memory the motion which drew them towards the future, towards a future which has itself become the past, and draw us on in their train.”
    —Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
