More quotes by Mary Abigail Dodge
Men as yet need some help to their imagination. There remains still room for a little illusion. It is better for men, it is better for women, that each somewhat idealize the other. Much is lost when life has lost its atmosphere, and is reduced to naked fact.
Mary Abigail Dodge
Whatever an author puts between the two covers of his book is public property whatever of himself he does not put there is his private property, as much as if he had never written a word.
Mary Abigail Dodge
One ought not to write for money, but I consider it a first duty after one has written to exact the highest possible price. It is not a matter which concerns only the writer, but all writers.
Mary Abigail Dodge
What's virtue in a man can't be virtue in a cat.
Mary Abigail Dodge
Every person is responsible for all the good within the scope of his abilities, and for no more.
Mary Abigail Dodge
There is generally no such thing as duty to the people who do it. They simply take life as it comes, meeting, not, shirking its demands, whether pleasant or unpleasant and that is pretty much all there is of it.
Mary Abigail Dodge
