Paper Quotations
Words mean more than what is set down on paper. It takes the human voice to infuse them with deeper meaning.
Maya Angelou
I wake up every morning at nine and grab for the morning paper. Then I look at the obituary page. If my name is not on it, I get up.
Benjamin Franklin
I put a piece of paper under my pillow, and when I could not sleep I wrote in the dark.
Henry David Thoreau
My aim is to put down on paper what I see and what I feel in the best and simplest way.
Ernest Hemingway
We didn't become the most prosperous country in the world just by rewarding greed and recklessness. We didn't come this far by letting the special interests run wild. We didn't do it just by gambling and chasing paper profits on Wall Street. We built this country by making things, by producing goods we could sell.
Barack Obama
The artist is a receptacle for emotions that come from all over the place: from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper, from a passing shape, from a spider's web.
Pablo Picasso
When at last we are sure, You've been properly pilled, Then a few paper forms, Must be properly filled. So that you and your heirs, May be properly billed.
Dr. Seuss
Poetry surrounds us everywhere, but putting it on paper is, alas, not so easy as looking at it.
Vincent Van Gogh
I was too old for a paper route, too young for Social Security and too tired for an affair.
Erma Bombeck
One Ad is worth more to a paper than forty Editorials.
Will Rogers
