Prose Travel Work

Famous quotes containing the words prose, travel and/or work:

    Good authors, too, who once knew better words
    Now only use four-letter words
    Writing prose ...
    Anything goes.
    Cole Porter (1893–1964)

    Vices may be said to await us along the course of our lives like hosts with whom we lodge successively on a journey; and I doubt that experience would cause us to avoid them, if we could travel the same road twice.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)

    Writing is not like painting where you add. It is not what you put on the canvas that the reader sees. Writing is more like a sculpture where you remove, you eliminate in order to make the work visible. Even those pages you remove somehow remain.
    Elie Wiesel (b. 1928)
