Blessed Agony

Famous quotes containing the words blessed and/or agony:

“Thou art a blessed fellow to think as every man thinks. Never
a man’s thought in the world keeps the road-way better than
thine.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“If writers were too wise, perhaps no books would get written at all. It might be better to ask yourself “Why?” afterwards than before. Anyway, the force from somewhere in Space which commands you to write in the first place, gives you no choice. You take up the pen when you are told, and write what is commanded. There is no agony like bearing an untold story inside you.”
—Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)
