Essays Written

Famous quotes containing the words essays and/or written:

    What are these essays but grotesque and monstrous bodies, pieced together of different members, without any definite shape, without any order, coherence, or proportion, except they be accidental?
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    I have since written what no tide
    Shall ever wash away, what men
    Unborn shall read o’er ocean wide
    And find Ianthe’s name agen.
    Walter Savage Landor (1775–1864)
