Famous quotes containing the word writing:
“No race can prosper till it learns there is as much dignity in tilling a field as in writing a poem.”

everybody is like some one else too to me. No one of
them that I know can want to know it and so I write
for myself and strangers.”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)

—Janice A. Radway (b. 1949)
