Draws

Famous quotes containing the word draws:

    With crayons the child draws a rigid house
    and a winding pathway. Then the child
    puts in a man with buttons like tears
    Elizabeth Bishop (1911–1979)

    But let me open up my heart to you completely, my friends: if there were gods, how could I bear not being a god! Hence, there are no gods. I drew this conclusion, to be sure—but now it draws me.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    A cow does not know how much milk it has until the milkman starts working on it. Then it looks round in surprise and sees the pail full to the brim. In the same way a writer has no idea how much he has to say till his pen draws it out of him. Thoughts will then appear on the paper that he is amazed to find that he possessed. “How brilliant!” he says to himself. “I had no idea I was so intelligent.” But the reader may not be so im pressed.
    Gerald Branan (1894–1987)
