Famous quotes containing the word form:

    “The diary is an art form just as much as the novel or the play. The diary simply requires a greater canvas.”
    —Henry Miller (1891–1980)

    “Things base and vile, holding no quantity,
    Love can transpose to form and dignity.
    Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind,
    And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “I doubt that I would have taken so many leaps in my own writing or been as clear about my feminist and political commitments if I had not been anointed as early as I was. Some major form of recognition seems to have to mark a woman’s career for her to be able to go out on a limb without having her credentials questioned.”
    —Ruth Behar (b. 1956)
