Famous quotes containing the word feeling:

    Write till your ink be dry, and with your tears
    Moist it again, and frame some feeling line
    That may discover such integrity.

    Publicity in women is detestable. Anonymity runs in their blood. The desire to be veiled still possesses them. They are not even now as concerned about the health of their fame as men are, and, speaking generally, will pass a tombstone or a signpost without feeling an irresistible desire to cut their names on it.
    Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)

    One mustn’t always believe that feeling is everything. In the arts, it is nothing without form.
    Gustave Flaubert (1821–1880)
