Discover

Famous quotes containing the word discover:

    Write till your ink be dry, and with your tears
    Moist it again, and frame some feeling line
    That may discover such integrity.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Not even the most powerful organs of the press, including Time, Newsweek, and The New York Times, can discover a new artist or certify his work and make it stick.... They can only bring you the scores.
    Tom Wolfe (b. 1931)

    Where I would like to discover facts, I find fancy. Where I would like to learn what I did, I learn only what I was thinking. They are loaded with opinion, moral thoughts, quick evaluations, youthful hopes and cares and sorrows. Occasionally, they manage to report something in exquisite honesty and accuracy. That is why I have refrained from burning them.
    —E.B. (Elwyn Brooks)
