Starts

Famous quotes containing the word starts:

    Perhaps you can tell me why in this country nobody ever does anything. Nobody ever writes any music or starts any revolutions or falls in love. All anybody ever does is to get drunk and tell smutty stories.
    John Dos Passos (1896–1970)

    Our literature, despite several false starts that promised much, is chiefly remarkable, now as always, for its respectable mediocrity.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)

    In art, one idea is as good as another. If one takes the idea of trembling, for instance, all of a sudden most art starts to tremble. Michelangelo starts to tremble. El Greco starts to tremble. All the Impressionists start to tremble.
    Willem De Kooning (b. 1904)
