Unbalanced Loads

Famous quotes containing the words unbalanced and/or loads:

“However, the danger in [socially unbalanced relationships] is that the subjection of the woman temporarily calms the man’s jealousy but also renders it more demanding. He ends up making his mistress live like those prisoners on whom light is shone day and night in order for them to be better watched. And things always end in tragedy.”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)

“Every increased possession loads us with a new weariness.”
—John Ruskin (1819–1900)
