Career Best Times

Famous quotes containing the words career and/or times:

    “I restore myself when I’m alone. A career is born in public—talent in privacy.”
    —Marilyn Monroe (1926–1962)

    “The line it is drawn
    The curse it is cast
    The slow one now
    Will later be fast
    As the present now
    Will later be past
    The order is
    Rapidly fadin’.
    And the first one now
    Will later be last
    For the times they are a-changin’.”
    —Bob Dylan [Robert Allen Zimmerman] (b. 1941)
