Special Guest Voice

Famous quotes containing the words special, guest and/or voice:

    In this century the writer has carried on a conversation with madness. We might almost say of the twentieth-century writer that he aspires to madness. Some have made it, of course, and they hold special places in our regard. To a writer, madness is a final distillation of self, a final editing down. It’s the drowning out of false voices.
    Don Delillo (b. 1926)

    This guest of summer,
    The temple-haunting martlet, does approve,
    By his loved mansionry, that the heaven’s breath
    Smells wooingly here.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    This, mayhap, was not logic, but it was something more potent, more real than logic—the soft insinuating voice of Sentiment.
    Emmuska, Baroness Orczy (1865–1947)
