Life is not to be told, call it as loud as you like, it will not tell itself Picture Quote #1

I am bound to tell what I am told, but not in every case to believe it Picture Quote #1

Another woman approached me while I was having lunch at the Russian Tea Room in New York and told me that the reason she had become a lawyer was because she had read 'Rage of Angels'. To me, that kind of feedback has more meaning than any sales figures Picture Quote #1

I have been told by hospital authorities that more copies of my works are left behind by departing patients than those of any other author Picture Quote #1

We call ourselves a free nation, and yet we let ourselves be told what cabs we can and can't take by a man at a hotel door, simply because he has a drum major's uniform on Picture Quote #1

As told in friendship with God, if we simply decided to believe and act as if first, we're all one, and second, life is eternal, it would render virtually everything we've done all our lives pointless Picture Quote #1

It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing Picture Quote #1

I like to have a thing suggested rather than told in full. When every detail is given, the mind rests satisfied, and the imagination loses the desire to use it's own wings Picture Quote #1

O, know, sweet love, I always write of you, and you and love are still my argument; so all my best is dressing old words new, spending again what is already spent: for as the sun is daily new and old, so is my love still telling what is told Picture Quote #1
