Famous quotes containing the words truthful and/or speaking:
“Only truthful hands write true poems. I cannot see any basic difference between a handshake and a poem.”

“Two forms move among the dead, high sleep
Who by his highness quiets them, high peace
Upon whose shoulders even the heavens rest,
Two brothers. And a third form, she that says
Good-by in the darkness, speaking quietly there,
To those that cannot say good-by themselves.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
