Famous quotes containing the words published and/or writings:

    “Man cannot bury his meanings so deep in his book, but time and like-minded men will find them. Plato had a secret doctrine, had he? What secret can he conceal from the eyes of Bacon? of Montaigne? of Kant? Therefore, Aristotle said of his works, “They are published and not published.””
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

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