Writes

Famous quotes containing the word writes:

    O, that’s a brave man! he writes brave verses, speaks
    brave words, swears brave oaths, and breaks them bravely.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    I have not much faith in women in fiction.... Women are so horribly subjective and they have such scorn for the healthy commonplace. When a woman writes a story of adventure, a stout sea tale, a manly battle yarn, anything without wine, women, and love, then I will begin to hope for something great from them, not before.
    Willa Cather (1873–1947)

    The whole race is a poet that writes down
    The eccentric propositions of its fate.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
