crack Quotes

Quote:When nothing seems to help, I go and look at a stonecutter hammering away at his rock perhaps a hundred times without as much as a crack showing in it. Yet at the hundred and first blow it will split in two, and I know it was not that blow that did it, but all that had gone before.[Jacob August Riis]

Quote:Change, when it comes, cracks everything open. [Harrison Ford]

Quote:I would never do crack... I would never do a drug named after a part of my own ass, okay? [Denis Leary]
