Famous quotes containing the words front, hand and/or grabs:
“A mans destination is his own village,
His own cooking fire, and his wifes cooking;
To sit in front of his own door at sunset
And see his grandson, and his neighbours grandson
Playing in the dust together.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
“Whatever your hand finds to do, do with your might; for there is no work or thought or knowledge or wisdom in Sheol, to which you are going.”
—Bible: Hebrew, Ecclesiastes 9:10.
“The present era grabs everything that was ever written in order to transform it into films, TV programmes, or cartoons. What is essential in a novel is precisely what can only be expressed in a novel, and so every adaptation contains nothing but the non-essential. If a person is still crazy enough to write novels nowadays and wants to protect them, he has to write them in such a way that they cannot be adapted, in other words, in such a way that they cannot be retold.”
—Milan Kundera (b. 1929)
