Famous quotes containing the words entering into, entering and/or force:

    “Women are quite capable of entering into a friendship with a man, but to keep it going—that takes a little physical antipathy as well.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    ““... Farewell then,
    Until, under a better sky
    We may meet expended, for just doing it
    Is only an excuse. We need the tether
    Of entering each other’s lives, eyes wide apart, crying.””
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    “When the excessively shy force themselves to be forward, they are frequently surprisingly unsubtle and overdirect and even rude: they have entered an extreme region beyond their normal personality, an area of social crime where gradations don’t count; unavailable to them are the instincts and taboos that booming extroverts, who know the territory of self-advancement far better, can rely on.”
    —Nicholson Baker (b. 1957)
