French Appeared

Famous quotes containing the words french and/or appeared:

    Like a French poem is life; being only perfect in structure

    Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807–1882)

    A friend of mine spoke of books that are dedicated like this: “To my wife, by whose helpful criticism ...” and so on. He said the dedication should really read: “To my wife. If it had not been for her continual criticism and persistent nagging doubt as to my ability, this book would have appeared in Harper’s instead of The Hardware Age.”
    Brenda Ueland (1891–1985)
