Famous quotes containing the words hawthorne and/or wrote:
“We must not always talk in the market-place of what happens to us in the forest.”
—Nathaniel Hawthorne (1804–1864)
“When I wrote of the women in their dances and wildness, it was a mask,
on their mountain, gold-hunting, singing, in orgy,
it was a mask; when I wrote of the god,
fragmented, exiled from himself, his life, the love gone down with song,
it was myself, split open, unable to speak, in exile from myself.
...
No more masks! No more mythologies!”
—Muriel Rukeyser (1913–1980)
