Text Quotes
Science means simply the aggregate of all the recipes that are always successful. All the rest is literature  (Literature Quotes) There's all this stuff that is happening in Edinburgh now, it's a sad attempt to create an Edinburgh society, similar to a London society, a highbrow literature celebrity society  (Literature Quotes) I get up at an unholy hour in the morning my work day is completed by the time the sun rises. I have a slightly bad back which has made an enormous contribution to American literature  (Literature Quotes) Literature overtakes history, for literature gives you more than one life. It expands experience and opens new opportunities to readers  (Literature Quotes) Great literature should do some good to the reader: must quicken his perception though dull, and sharpen his discrimination though blunt, and mellow the rawness of his personal opinions  (Literature Quotes) Literature that keeps employing new linguistic and formal modes of expression to draft a panorama of society as a whole while at the same time exposing it, tearing the masks from it's face - for me that would be deserving of an award  (Literature Quotes) A great memory does not make a mind, any more than a dictionary is a piece of literature  (Literature Quotes) The world gets older, without getting either better or worse and so does literature. But I do think that the drab current phenomenon that passes for literary studies in the university will finally provide it's own corrective  (Literature Quotes) People cannot stand the saddest truth I know about the very nature of reading and writing imaginative literature, which is that poetry does not teach us how to talk to other people: it teaches us how to talk to ourselves. What I'm desperately trying to do is to get students to talk to themselves, and not someone else  (Literature Quotes) Great literature must spring from an upheaval in the author's soul. If that upheaval is not present then it must come from the works of any other author which happens to be handy and easily adapted  (Literature Quotes) The naturalistic literature of this country has reached such a state that no family of characters is considered true to life which does not include at least two hypochondriacs, one sadist, and one old man who spills food down the front of his vest  (Literature Quotes) Twentieth century Russian literature has produced nothing special except perhaps one novel and two stories by Andrei Platonov, who ended his days sweeping streets  (Literature Quotes) Woe to that nation whose literature is cut short by the intrusion of force. This is not merely interference with freedom of the press but the sealing up of a nation's heart, the excision of it's memory  (Literature Quotes) It's not a ladder we're climbing, it's literature we're producing... We cannot possibly leave it to history as a discipline nor to sociology nor science nor economics to tell the story of our people  (Literature Quotes) Literature is a defense against the attacks of life. It says to life: You can't deceive me. I know your habits, foresee and enjoy watching all your reactions, and steal your secret by involving you in cunning obstructions that halt your normal flow  (Literature Quotes) Is all literature eavesdropping, and all art Chinese imitation? Our life a custom, and our body borrowed, like a beggar's dinner, from a hundred charities?  (Literature Quotes) Art works because it appeals to certain faculties of the mind. Music depends on details of the auditory system, painting and sculpture on the visual system. Poetry and literature depend on language  (Literature Quotes) Nature and literature are subjective phenomena; every evil and every good thing is a shadow which we cast  (Literature Quotes) I am an anarchist in politics and an impressionist in art as well as a symbolist in literature. Not that I understand what these terms mean, but I take them to be all merely synonyms of pessimist  (Literature Quotes) In Algeria, I had begun to get into literature and philosophy. I dreamed of writing - and already models were instructing the dream, a certain language governed it  (Literature Quotes) In science, read by preference the newest works. In literature, read the oldest. The classics are always modern  (Literature Quotes) I still believe nonfiction is the most important literature to come out of the second half of the 20th century  (Literature Quotes) For she was of that generation who, having found nothing in religion, had formed themselves through literature  (Literature Quotes) A woman writer, quitting love before literature when love lets her down, will put literature before love  (Literature Quotes) In our day the conventional element in literature is elaborately disguised by a law of copyright pretending that every work of art is an invention distinctive enough to be patented  (Literature Quotes) I think enough cannot be said for what you can discover through literature. So I think that was probably my most valued characteristic as a teenager  (Literature Quotes) While thought exists, words are alive and literature becomes an escape, not from, but into living  (Literature Quotes) Experience enables me to depose to the comfort and blessing that literature can prove in seasons of sickness and sorrow  (Literature Quotes) There is a point, and it is reached more easily than is supposed, where interference with freedom of the arts and literature becomes an attack on the life of society  (Literature Quotes) Literature must be an analysis of experience and a synthesis of the findings into a unity  (Literature Quotes)
