Famous quotes containing the words work and/or published:
“The complexion of the element
In favor’s like the work we have in hand,
Most bloody-fiery, and most terrible.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Until the Women’s Movement, it was commonplace to be told by an editor that he’d like to publish more of my poems, but he’d already published one by a woman that month ... this attitude was the rule rather than the exception, until the mid-sixties. Highest compliment was to be told, “You write like a man.””
—Maxine Kumin (b. 1925)
