Famous quotes containing the words grateful and/or dead:
“I will write, as in the past, simply for the pleasure of writing, for myself alone, with no thought of money or fame. Apollo at least will be grateful to me, and perhaps at last I will produce something beautiful—for all things make way before the unceasing striving of an energetic sentiment.”
—Gustave Flaubert (1821–1880)
“How shall the dead taste the deep treasure they have?”
—Robinson Jeffers (1887–1962)
