By Nature meant the Whole Goddam Machinery.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)

“It was only just words, words,—they meant nothing in the world to him, I might just as well have whistled. Words realize nothing, vivify nothing to you, unless you have suffered in your own person the thing which the words try to describe.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

“The writer probably knows what he meant when he wrote a book, but he should immediately forget what he meant when he’s written it.”
