Famous quotes containing the word worked:

    An artist’s originality is balanced by a corresponding conservatism, a superstitiousness, about it; which might be boiled down to “What worked before will work again.”
    Nancy Hale (b. 1908)

    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)
