Famous quotes containing the word making:
“Those who wander in the world avowedly and purposely in pursuit of happiness, who view every scene of present joy with an eye to what may succeed, certainly are more liable to disappointment, misfortune and unhappiness, than those who give up their fate to chance and take the goods and evils of fortune as they come, without making happiness their study, or misery their foresight.”
—Frances Burney (17521840)
“I take enormous pleasure every time I see something that Ive done that cannot be wiped out. In some way ... I guess its a protest against mortality. But its been so much fun! Its the curiosity that drives me. Its making a difference in the world that prevents me from ever giving up.”
—Deborah Meier (b. 1931)
“Mr. Faulkner, of course, is interested in making your mind rather than your flesh creep.”
