Arc Quotations
The moral arc of the universe bends at the elbow of justice. Martin Luther King, Jr. Chastity does not mean abstention from sexual wrong; it means something flaming, like Joan of Arc. Gilbert K. Chesterton When Joan D' Arc was asked by her judges why as a Christian she did not love the British, she answered that she did love them, but she loved British in their country. In the same way, we do not hate the Turks, we love them, but in their country. Jean-Marie Le Pen If my career continues along its current arc, people will probably look at me and see a writer who is obsessed with the relationship between rich and poor and with how the rich somehow or other always manage to betray the poor, even when they don't mean to. Richard Russo Well, I don't know what Ron has in mind, but I do know about the arc of the show. Looking at how intuitive and instinctive Eddie and I play, that is the sort of thing that leads into sexual chemistry. I wouldn't be surprised if it emerged. Mary McDonnell |
