Joy Williams

Famous quotes containing the words joy and/or williams:

    It is in these acts called trivialities that the seeds of joy are forever wasted, until men and women look round with haggard faces at the devastation their own waste has made, and say, the earth bears no harvest of sweetness—calling their denial knowledge.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    Teaching creativity to your child isn’t like teaching good manners. No one can paint a masterpiece by bowing to another person’s precepts about elbows on the table.
    —Gurney Williams III (20th century)
