Agent Intellect

Famous quotes containing the words agent and/or intellect:

“The agent never receipts his bill, puts his hat on and bows himself out. He stays around forever, not only for as long as you can write anything that anyone will buy, but as long as anyone will buy any portion of any right to anything that you ever did write. He just takes ten per cent of your life.”
—Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)

“The intellect of man is forced to choose
Perfection of the life, or of the work,”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
