Windowpane Quotations
It is also true that one can write nothing readable unless one constantly struggles to efface one's own personality. Good prose is like a windowpane.
George Orwell
Good writing is like a windowpane.
George Orwell
Rosiness is not a worse windowpane than gloomy gray when viewing the world.
Grace Paley
