Famous quotes containing the word composition:

    “If I don’t write to empty my mind, I go mad. As to that regular, uninterrupted love of writing ... I do not understand it. I feel it as a torture, which I must get rid of, but never as a pleasure. On the contrary, I think composition a great pain.”
    —George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    “Vices enter into the composition of virtues as poisons into the composition of certain medicines. Prudence and common sense mix them together, and make excellent use of them against the misfortunes that attend human life.”
    —François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)

    “Every thing in his composition was little; and he had all the weaknesses of a little mind, without any of the virtues, or even the vices, of a great one.”
    —Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
