True

Famous quotes containing the word true:

“There’s no true drop of blood in him to be truly touched with love; if he be sad, he wants money.”

“Rhyme, the rack of finest wits,
That expresseth but by fits
True conceit,
Spoiling senses of their treasure,
Cozening judgment with a measure,
But false weight;
Wresting words from their true calling;
Propping verse for fear of falling
To the ground;
Jointing syllables, drowning letters,
Fastening vowels, as with fetters
They were bound!”
—Ben Jonson (1572–1637)

“The true poet for me is a priest. As soon as he dons the cassock, he must leave his family.”
—Gustave Flaubert (1821–1880)
