More quotes by Gwendolyn Brooks
Art is a refining and evocative translation of the materials of the world.
Truth-tellers are not always palatable.
There is a preference for candy bars.
Art hurts. Art urges voyages—
and it is easier to stay at home.

Reading maketh a full man; conference a ready man; and writing an exact man.
The free-lance writer is a man who is paid per piece or per word or perhaps.
Three sleepless nights I passed in sounding on,
Through words and things, a dim and perilous way.
