Famous quotes containing the words open and/or letters:

    “The novelist is required to open his eyes on the world around him and look. If what he sees is not highly edifying, he is still required to look. Then he is required to reproduce, with words, what he sees.”
    —Flannery O’Connor (1925–1964)

    “And graven with diamonds in letters plain
    There is written her fair neck round about:
    “Noli me tangere for Caesar’s I am,
    And wild for to hold though I seem tame.””
    —Sir Thomas Wyatt (1503?–1542)
