Writer Hour

Famous quotes containing the words writer and/or hour:

“One writer says that Brown’s peculiar monomania made him to be “dreaded by the Missourians as a supernatural being.” Sure enough, a hero in the midst of us cowards is always so dreaded. He is just that thing. He shows himself superior to nature. He has a spark of divinity in him.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“Well, then, never come again
since you found me out
the last time;
I can’t stay in hour after hour
and wait;
you were late.”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
