Hard

Famous quotes containing the word hard:

    Writing poetry is the hard manual labor of the imagination.
    Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)

    Say what you will, making marriage work is a woman’s business. The institution was invented to do her homage; it was contrived for her protection. Unless she accepts it as such—as a beautiful, bountiful, but quite unequal association—the going will be hard indeed.
    Phyllis McGinley (1905–1978)

    Dogmatic theological statements are neither logical propositions nor poetic utterances. They are “shaggy dog” stories; they have a point, but he who tries too hard to get it will miss it.
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
