Fountain Pens Accept

Famous quotes containing the words fountain, pens and/or accept:

    Don’t say, don’t say there is no water
    to solace the dryness at our hearts.
    I have seen
    the fountain springing out of the rock wall
    and you drinking there.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    Let other pens dwell on guilt and misery. I quit such odious subjects as soon as I can, impatient to restore every body, not greatly in fault themselves, to tolerable comfort, and to have done with all the rest.
    Jane Austen (1775–1817)

    I acknowledge that the balance I have achieved between work and family roles comes at a cost, and every day I must weigh whether I live with that cost happily or guiltily, or whether some other lifestyle entails trade-offs I might accept more readily. It is always my choice: to change what I cannot tolerate, or tolerate what I cannot—or will not—change.
    Melinda M. Marshall (20th century)
