Altered Ego

Famous quotes containing the words altered and/or ego:

“The movies were my textbooks for everything else in the world. When it wasn’t, I altered it. If I saw a college, I would see only cheerleaders or blonds. If I saw New York City, I would want to go to the slums I’d seen in the movies, where the tough kids played. If I went to Chicago, I’d want to see the brawling factories and the gangsters.”
—Jill Robinson (b. 1936)

“As a lone ant from a broken ant-hill
from the wreckage of Europe, ego scriptor.”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
