Famous quotes containing the words hat and/or worn:
“The hat I was married in,
will it do?
White, broad, fake flowers in a tiny array.
Its old-fashioned, as stylish as a bedbug,
but it suits to die in something nostalgic.”
—Anne Sexton (19281974)
“No one can write a best seller by trying to. He must write with complete sincerity; the clichés that make you laugh, the hackneyed characters, the well-worn situations, the commonplace story that excites your derision, seem neither hackneyed, well worn nor commonplace to him.... The conclusion is obvious: you cannot write anything that will convince unless you are yourself convinced. The best seller sells because he writes with his hearts blood.”
—W. Somerset Maugham (18741966)
