Famous quotes containing the words ink and/or text:
“Language has not the power to speak what love indites:
The Soul lies buried in the ink that writes.”
—John Clare (1793–1864)
“If ever I should condescend to prose,
I’ll write poetical commandments, which
Shall supersede beyond all doubt all those
That went before; in these I shall enrich
My text with many things that no one knows,
And carry precept to the highest pitch:
I’ll call the work ‘Longinus o’er a Bottle,
Or, Every Poet his own Aristotle.’”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
