Famous Quotes By Anne Finch
Did I, my lines intend for public view,
How many censures, would their faults pursue,
Some would, because such words they do affect,
Cry they're insipid, empty, uncorrect.
And many, have attained, dull and untaught,
The name of wit, only by finding fault.
True judges, might condemn their want of wit,
And all might say, they're by a woman writ. — Anne Finch
Alas! a woman that attempts the pen,
Such an intruder on the rights of men,
Such a presumptuous Creature, is esteem'd,
The fault, can by no virtue be redeem'd. — Anne Finch
Thirst of wealth no quiet knows, But near the death-bed fierce grows. — Anne Finch
