Famous quotes containing the words published and/or writings:

    “I saw the best minds of my generation
    Reading their poems to Vassar girls,
    Being interviewed by Mademoiselle.
    Having their publicity handled by professionals.
    When can I go into an editorial office
    And have my stuff published because I’m weird?
    I could go on writing like this forever . . .”
    —Louis Simpson (b. 1923)

    “Accursed who brings to light of day
    The writings I have cast away.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
