—Thomas Traherne (1636–1674)
“A fanatic is a man that does what he thinks the Lord would do if He knew the facts of the case.”
—Finley Peter Dunne (1867–1936)
“Even if I knew for certain that I would never have anything published again, and would never make another cent from it, I would still keep on writing.”
—Brenda Ueland (1891–1985)
