Five dead writers I’d love to bring back for a dinner party, and a quote from each. Who would you bring back?
Colette: “Our perfect companions never have fewer than four feet.”
Dorothy Parker: “I’m never going to be famous. My name will never be writ large on the roster of Those Who Do Things. I don’t do any thing. Not one single thing. I used to bite my nails, but I don’t even do that any more.”
Marguerite Higgins: “I wouldn’t be here if there were no
trouble. Trouble is news, and the gathering of news is
my job.”
Oscar Wilde: “The true mystery of the world is the visible, not the invisible.”
Emily Dickinson: “Whenever a thing is done for the first time, it releases a little demon.
A Dinner Party…
