Famous quotes containing the words rush and/or hour:
“The better a work is, the more it attracts criticism; it is like the fleas who rush to jump on white linens.”
—Gustave Flaubert (1821–1880)
“No, I have no thoughts about anything, even less am I feeling rebellious. That is the punishment, Martha, and I suppose that there comes an hour when all murderers are like me, emptied from the inside, sterile, without any possible future. That is why they are eliminated, they are no longer good for anything.”
—Albert Camus (1913–1960)
