Famous quotes containing the words young and/or authors:
“Life is the desert, life the solitude,
Death joins us to the great majority.”
—Edward Young (16831765)
“Some authors have what amounts to a metaphysical approach. They admit to inspiration. Sudden and unaccountable urgencies to write catapult them out of sleep and bed. For myself, I have never awakened to jot down an idea that was acceptable the following morning.”
—Fannie Hurst (18891968)
