Famous quotes containing the word worked:

    He worked for twenty years to get his contemporaries to believe—and in the end he succeeded. Meanwhile, however, his adversaries also succeeded: he could no longer believe in himself.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    Imagination of my kind is most caught, most fired, most worked upon by the unfamiliar: I have thriven ... on the changes and chances, the dislocations and ... contrasts which have made up so much of my life.
    Elizabeth Bowen (1899–1973)
