Smith Married

Famous quotes containing the words smith and/or married:

    Why does my Muse only speak when she is unhappy?
    She does not, I only listen when I am unhappy
    When I am happy I live and despise writing
    For my Muse this cannot but be dispiriting.
    —Stevie Smith (1902–1971)

    Love is a blazing, crackling, green-wood flame, as much smoke as flame; friendship, married friendship particularly, is a steady, intense, comfortable fire. Love, in courtship, is friendship in hope; in matrimony, friendship upon proof.
    Samuel Richardson (1689–1761)
