Famous quotes containing the words wee and/or show:
“Sudden the wee Elf
Smiled a wee smile,

Toppled in two.
Holding it over him
Gaily he flew.”

“Editing should be, especially in the case of old writers, a counseling rather than a collaborating task. The tendency of the writer-editor to collaborate is natural, but he should say to himself, “How can I help this writer to say it better in his own style?” and avoid “How can I show him how I would write it, if it were my piece?””
—James Thurber (1894–1961)
