Famous quotes containing the word writings:

    “An able reader often discovers in other people’s writings perfections beyond those that the author put in or perceived, and lends them richer meanings and aspects.”
    —Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    “In this part of the world it is considered a ground for complaint if a man’s writings admit of more than one interpretation.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “It has come to be practically a sort of rule in literature, that a man, having once shown himself capable of original writing, is entitled thenceforth to steal from the writings of others at discretion. Thought is the property of him who can entertain it; and of him who can adequately place it. A certain awkwardness marks the use of borrowed thoughts; but, as soon as we have learned what to do with them, they become our own.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
