Margaret Deland Quotes and Quotations
Nobody who is somebody looks down on anybody. You can't have genius without patience. A sneer is like a flame; it may occasionally be curative because it cauterizes, but it leaves a bitter scar. One must desire something to be alive: perhaps absolute satisfaction is only another name for Death. Every new truth begins in a shocking heresy. A pint can't hold a quart-if it holds a pint it is doing all that can be expected of it.
