Great Writing Quotes by Author Charles W. Eliot

Great Writing Quotes by Author Charles W. Eliot
Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, and the most patient of teachers. The finest language is mostly made up of simple unimposing words. No story is the same to us after a lapse of time; or rather we who read it are no longer the same interpreters. I don’t want the world to give me anything for my books except money enough to save me from the temptation to write only for money. The words of genius have a wider meaning than the thought that prompted them.

Jeffries: "Health care can't simply be a privilege available only to the wealthy, the well off and well connected. Health care must be a right available to every single American. And that's the fight that House Democrats will continue to wage."

My saga "Vampires and Spies" explores a near-future in which vampires see humans as a primitive species, barely aware they exist, until the two must come together against forces of unspeakable darkness.

WATCH — @repstevenhorsford.bsky.social : “My amendment would redirect that $40 BILLION from Argentina to fund the ACA subsidies for two years… a far better use of taxpayer dollars.”

Why do we have money for Argentina while our own people lose their health care? How does this make us great?

Bit by bit life fades like a guttering lamp,
Passes on like a river that never rests.
Sat a long time till mists had cleared.
Moonrise—the lamp of night drifts upward;
