Harder

Famous quotes containing the word harder:

“Yes, it’s hard to write, but it’s harder not to.”
—Carl Van Doren (1885–1950)

“A work in progress quickly becomes feral. It reverts to a wild state overnight. It is barely domesticated, a mustang on which you one day fastened a halter, but which now you cannot catch. It is a lion you cage in your study. As the work grows, it gets harder to control; it is a lion growing in strength. You must visit it every day and reassert your mastery over it. If you skip a day, you are, quite rightly, afraid to open the door to its room.”
—Annie Dillard (b. 1945)

“It is harder to kill a whisper than even a shouted calumny.”
—Mary Stewart (b. 1916)
