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

    Shall life succeed in that it seems to fail:
    What I aspired to be,
    And was not, comforts me:
    Robert Browning (1812–1889)

    Every writer “creates” his own precursors. His work modifies our conception of the past, as it will modify the future.
    Jorge Luis Borges (1899–1986)

    So is the English Parliament provincial. Mere country bumpkins, they betray themselves, when any more important question arises for them to settle, the Irish question, for instance,—the English question why did I not say? Their natures are subdued to what they work in. Their “good breeding” respects only secondary objects.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
