Famous quotes containing the words david and/or williams:
“This unlettered man’s speaking and writing are standard English. Some words and phrases deemed vulgarisms and Americanisms before, he has made standard American; such as “It will pay.” It suggests that the one great rule of composition—and if I were a professor of rhetoric I should insist on this—is, to speak the truth. This first, this second, this third; pebbles in your mouth or not. This demands earnestness and manhood chiefly.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“We are only mortal
but being mortal
can defy our fate.
We may
by an outside chance
even win!”
—William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)
