Famous quotes containing the word agony:

    The end will come quickly, my love. There is a pain beyond pain, an agony so intense it shocks the mind into instant oblivion. We’ll find immortality together, for they’ll remember me through you.
    Crane Wilbur (1889–1973)

    Zorba: Why do the young die? Why does anybody die?
    Basil: I don’t know.
    Zorba: What’s the use of all your damn books? If they don’t tell you that, what the hell do they tell you?
    Basil: They tell me about the agony of men who can’t answer questions like yours.
    I spit on their agony.
    Michael Cacoyannis (b. 1922)

    If writers were too wise, perhaps no books would get written at all. It might be better to ask yourself “Why?” afterwards than before. Anyway, the force from somewhere in Space which commands you to write in the first place, gives you no choice. You take up the pen when you are told, and write what is commanded. There is no agony like bearing an untold story inside you.
    Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)
