Famous quotes containing the word authors:

    “Authors like cats because they are such quiet, lovable, wise creatures, and cats like authors for the same reasons.”
    —Robertson Davies (b. 1913)

    “No man’s thoughts are new, but the style of their expression is the never-failing novelty which cheers and refreshes men. If we were to answer the question, whether the mass of men, as we know them, talk as the standard authors and reviewers write, or rather as this man writes, we should say that he alone begins to write their language at all.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “One thing that literature would be greatly the better for
    Would be a more restricted employment by authors of simile and
    metaphor.”
    —Ogden Nash (1902–1971)
