Hubbard Told

Famous quotes containing the words hubbard and/or told:

    Th’ only way t’ entertain some folks is t’ listen t’ ‘em.
    —Kin Hubbard (F. [Frank] Mckinney Hubbard)

    Until the Women’s Movement, it was commonplace to be told by an editor that he’d like to publish more of my poems, but he’d already published one by a woman that month ... this attitude was the rule rather than the exception, until the mid-sixties. Highest compliment was to be told, “You write like a man.”
    Maxine Kumin (b. 1925)
