Famous quotes containing the words chosen and/or contained:
“Almost everybody in the neighborhood had “troubles,” frankly localized and specified; but only the chosen had “complications.” To have them was in itself a distinction, though it was also, in most cases, a death warrant. People struggled on for years with “troubles,” but they almost always succumbed to “complications.””
—Edith Wharton (1862–1937)
“Like desire, language disrupts, refuses to be contained within boundaries.”
—bell hooks (b. c. 1955)
