Famous quotes containing the words writing and/or controversy:

    True ease in writing comes from art, not chance,
    As those move easiest who have learn’d to dance.
    ‘Tis not enough no harshness gives offence,
    The sound must seem an echo to the sense:
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
