Famous quotes containing the words pit and/or bulls:
“We live in a time which has created the art of the absurd. It is our art. It contains happenings, Pop art, camp, a theater of the absurd.... Do we have the art because the absurd is the patina of waste...? Or are we face to face with a desperate or most rational effort from the deepest resources of the unconscious of us all to rescue civilization from the pit and plague of its bedding?”
—Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
“As fathers, men often feel either like guests in their own homes or clumsy bulls in china shops, deferring to their wives as the emotional experts and squelching their own wish to be fully involved.”
—Ron Taffel (20th century)
