Famous quotes containing the word passion:
“The great passion in a man’s life may not be for women or men or wealth or toys or fame, or even for his children, but for his masculinity, and at any point in his life he may be tempted to throw over the things for which he regularly lays down his life for the sake of that masculinity. He may keep this passion secret from women, and he may even deny it to himself, but the other boys know it about themselves and the wiser ones know it about the rest of us as well.”
—Frank Pittman (20th century)
“The child as a monument to the passion of two people; the will to oneness in two.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“What the public wants is the image of passion, not passion itself.”
—Roland Barthes (1915–1980)
