Collected Stories Volume

Famous quotes containing the words collected, stories and/or volume:

    He that would the daughter win
    Must with the mother first begin.
    17th-century English proverb, collected in J. Ray, English Proverbs (1670)

    Writing ought either to be the manufacture of stories for which there is a market demand—a business as safe and commendable as making soap or breakfast foods—or it should be an art, which is always a search for something for which there is no market demand, something new and untried, where the values are intrinsic and have nothing to do with standardized values.
    Willa Cather (1876–1947)

    Thy commandment all alone shall live
    Within the book and volume of my brain
    Unmixed with baser matter.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
