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

    when this life is from the body fled,
    To see it selfe in that eternall Glasse,
    Where time doth end, and thoughts accuse the dead,
    Where all to come, is one with all that was;
    Then living men aske how he left his breath,
    That while he lived never thought of death.
    Fulke Greville (1554–1628)

    On the day when a young writer corrects his first proof-sheet he is as proud as a schoolboy who has just got his first dose of pox.
    Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)

    Poets that lasting Marble seek
    Must carve in Latine or in Greek,
    We write in Sand, our Language grows,
    And like the Tide our work o’erflows.
    Edmund Waller (1606–1687)
