Famous quotes containing the words work and/or published:
“O dearly-bought revenge, yet glorious!
Living or dying thou hast fulfilld
The work for which thou wast foretold
To Israel, and now lyst victorious
Among thy slain self-killd
Not willingly, but tangld in the fold
Of dire necessity”
—John Milton (16081674)
“I saw the best minds of my generation
Reading their poems to Vassar girls,
Being interviewed by Mademoiselle.
Having their publicity handled by professionals.
When can I go into an editorial office
And have my stuff published because Im weird?
I could go on writing like this forever . . .”
—Louis Simpson (b. 1923)
