Chinese Writing

Famous quotes containing the words chinese and/or writing:

    One alone in a Chinese square
    confronted tanks, while others fled.
    He stood for freedom for us all,
    but few care now if he’s jailed or dead.
    Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)

    To write weekly, to write daily, to write shortly, to write for busy people catching trains in the morning or for tired people coming home in the evening, is a heartbreaking task for men who know good writing from bad. They do it, but instinctively draw out of harm’s way anything precious that might be damaged by contact with the public, or anything sharp that might irritate its skin.
    Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)
