Internal Bomb Bay

Famous quotes containing the words internal, bomb and/or bay:

    “Personal change, growth, development, identity formation—these tasks that once were thought to belong to childhood and adolescence alone now are recognized as part of adult life as well. Gone is the belief that adulthood is, or ought to be, a time of internal peace and comfort, that growing pains belong only to the young; gone the belief that these are marker events—a job, a mate, a child—through which we will pass into a life of relative ease.”
    —Lillian Breslow Rubin (20th century)

    “The man who throws a bomb is an artist, because he prefers a great moment to everything.”
    —Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)

    “Shall we now
    Contaminate our fingers with base bribes,
    And sell the mighty space of our large honors
    For so much trash as may be grasped thus?
    I had rather be a dog and bay the moon
    Than such a Roman.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
