Famous quotes containing the word chronic:

    “Perhaps our originality manifests itself most strikingly in what we do with that which we did not originate. To discover something wholly new can be a matter of chance, of idle tinkering, or even of the chronic dissatisfaction of the untalented.”
    —Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)

    “Ants are the only creatures on earth, other than man, who make war. They campaign, they are chronic aggressors, and they make slave laborers of the captives they don’t kill.”
    —Ted Sherdeman, and Gordon Douglas. Dr. Medford (Edmund Gwenn)

    “Adder-faced singularity
    Espouses a nailed-up childhood,
    Skin-disease pardons
    Soft horror of living,
    A gabble is forgiven
    By chronic solitude.”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
