Famous quotes containing the word writings:

“In this part of the world it is considered a ground for complaint if a man’s writings admit of more than one interpretation.”

“Accursed who brings to light of day
The writings I have cast away.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

“Even in my own writings I cannot always recover the meaning of my former ideas; I know not what I meant to say, and often get into a regular heat, correcting and putting a new sense into it, having lost the first and better one. I do nothing but come and go. My judgement does not always forge straight ahead; it strays and wanders.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
