Hard

Famous quotes containing the word hard:

    So you finally got wise to yourself, did you? Funny thing about you women. Most of you don’t get wise soon enough. You wait until you’re so old nobody want you.... You’re not so hard to look at. Give yourself a tumble, you’ll make the grade.
    Willis Goldbeck (1900–1979)

    Writers aren’t people exactly. Or, if they’re any good, they’re a whole lot of people trying so hard to be one person. It’s like actors, who try so pathetically not to look in mirrors. Who lean backward trying—only to see their faces in the reflecting chandeliers.
    F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)

    Ultimately, literature is nothing but carpentry. With both you are working with reality, a material just as hard as wood.
    —Gabriel García Márquez (b. 1928)
