The Quotation Of The Day Mailing List |
Quotation of the Day for May 20, 20101. See whatever is to be seen. 2. You should see whatever I have not seen. 3. Write down and describe, as faithfully as possible, whatever you see. 4. To write is not to admire; since you are not a painter, paint everything with words. 5. Whenever you can, abandon the footpaths, the worn crossroads of travellers. 6. Correct whatever can be corrected. - Thomas Gray, author of "Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard". His Maxims In Travelling, translated from Latin, are quoted in The Man Who Made Lists by Joshua Kendall. Submitted by: Terry Labach Apr. 7, 2009 |
