A frenzied passion for art is a canker that devours everything else.
Charles Baudelaire
Experience demands that man is the only animal which devours his own kind, for I can apply no milder term to the general prey of the rich on the poor.
Thomas Jefferson
Finance, like time, devours its own children.
Honore de Balzac
Girls blush, sometimes, because they are alive, half wishing they were dead to save the shame. The sudden blush devours them, neck and brow; They have drawn too near the fire of life, like gnats, and flare up bodily, wings and all. What then? Who's sorry for a gnat or girl?
Elizabeth Barrett Browning
Marriage must incessantly contend with a monster that devours everything: familiarity.
Honore de Balzac
Obscenity, which is ever blasphemy against the divine beauty in life, is a monster for which the corruption of society forever brings forth new food, which it devours in secret.
Percy Bysshe Shelley
Revolution is like Saturn, it devours its own children.
Georg Buchner
Some people lose all respect for the lion unless he devours them instantly. There is no pleasing some people.
Will Cuppy
The tiger springs in the new year. Us he devours.
T. S. Eliot
Time is the substance from which I am made. Time is a river which carries me along, but I am the river; it is a tiger that devours me, but I am the tiger; it is a fire that consumes me, but I am the fire.
Jorge Luis Borges
You do show after show after show and get them done and on the air. Television devours material. We work a minimum of 12, 14 hours, and often 15, 18 hours a day.
