Famous quotes containing the word writers:

    “Most writers steal a good thing when they can,
    And when ‘tis safely got ‘tis worth the winning.
    The worst of ‘t is we now and then detect ‘em,
    Before they ever dream that we suspect ‘em.”
    —Bryan Waller Proctor (1787–1874)

    “Parenthesis-proud, bracket-bold, happiest with hyphens,
    The writers stagger intoxicated by terms,
    adjective-unsteadied—”
    —Anthony Brode (b. 1923)

    “Never to have lived is best, ancient writers say;
    Never to have drawn the breath of life, never to have looked into the eye of day;
    The second best’s a gay goodnight and quickly turn away.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
