Donne Wrote

Famous quotes containing the words donne and/or wrote:

    Busy old fool, unruly sun,
    Why dost thou thus
    Through windows, and through curtains call on us?

    As artists they’re rot, but as providers they’re oil wells; they gush. Norris said she never wrote a story unless it was fun to do. I understand Ferber whistles at her typewriter. And there was that poor sucker Flaubert rolling around on his floor for three days looking for the right word.
    Dorothy Parker (1893–1967)
