Printing Plate

Famous quotes containing the words printing and/or plate:

    Before printing was discovered, a century was equal to a thousand years.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    I sometimes have the sense that I live my life as a writer with my nose pressed against the wide, shiny plate glass window of the “mainstream” culture. The world seems full of straight, large-circulation, slick periodicals which wouldn’t think of reviewing my book and bookstores which will never order it.
    Jan Clausen (b. 1943)
