Plain Style

Famous quotes containing the words plain and/or style:

    “One ought not to be thrown into confusion
    By a plain statement of relationship....”
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    A cultivated style would be like a mask. Everybody knows it’s a mask, and sooner or later you must show yourself—or at least, you show yourself as someone who could not afford to show himself, and so created something to hide behind.... You do not create a style. You work, and develop yourself; your style is an emanation from your own being.
    Katherine Anne Porter (1890–1980)
