Began Publication

Famous quotes containing the words began and/or publication:

    “But the cheerful Spring came kindly on
    And show’rs began to fall:
    John Barleycorn got up again
    And sore surpris’d them all.”
    —Robert Burns (1759–1796)

    “I would rather have as my patron a host of anonymous citizens digging into their own pockets for the price of a book or a magazine than a small body of enlightened and responsible men administering public funds. I would rather chance my personal vision of truth striking home here and there in the chaos of publication that exists than attempt to filter it through a few sets of official, honorably public-spirited scruples.”
    —John Updike (b. 1932)
