Famous quotes containing the words takes and/or thief:

    I am dead against art’s being self-expression. I see an inherent failure in any story which fails to detach itself from the author—detach itself in the sense that a well-blown soap-bubble detaches itself from the bowl of the blower’s pipe and spherically takes off into the air as a new, whole, pure, iridescent world. Whereas the ill-blown bubble, as children know, timidly adheres to the bowl’s lip, then either bursts or sinks flatly back again.
    Elizabeth Bowen (1899–1973)

    Time is a very bankrupt and owes more than he’s worth to
    season.
    Nay, he’s a thief too: have you not heard men say,
    That Time comes stealing on by night and day?
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
