Famous quotes containing the words life, writer and/or work:

    Oh, life is a glorious cycle of song,
    A medley of extemporanea;
    And love is a thing that can never go wrong;
    And I am Marie of Roumania.
    Dorothy Parker (1893–1967)

    One writer says that Brown’s peculiar monomania made him to be “dreaded by the Missourians as a supernatural being.” Sure enough, a hero in the midst of us cowards is always so dreaded. He is just that thing. He shows himself superior to nature. He has a spark of divinity in him.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Men are allowed to have passion and commitment for their work ... a woman is allowed that feeling for a man, but not her work.
    Barbra Streisand (b. 1942)
