Text Quotes

My father sometimes would work in musical comedies  (Literature Quotes) If I were a writer, how I would enjoy being told the novel is dead.

I think that you ought not to approach literature without a moral responsibility for every word you write  (Literature Quotes) One man finds in religion his literature and his science, another finds in it his joy and his duty  (Literature Quotes) To speak in literature with the perfect rectitude and insouciance of the movements of animals and the unimpeachable of the sentiment of trees in the woods and grass by the roadside is the flawless triumph of art  (Literature Quotes) Jokes of the proper kind, properly told, can do more to enlighten questions of politics, philosophy, and literature than any number of dull arguments  (Literature Quotes) The struggle of literature is in fact a struggle to escape from the confines of language; it stretches out from the utmost limits of what can be said; what stirs literature is the call and attraction of what is not in the dictionary  (Literature Quotes) A mere literary man is a dull man; a man who is solely a man of business is a selfish man; but when literature and commerce are united, they make a respectable man  (Literature Quotes) In literature the ambition of the novice is to acquire the literary language; the struggle of the adept is to get rid of it  (Literature Quotes) You’ve got to love libraries. You’ve got to love books. You’ve got to love poetry. You’ve got to love everything about literature. Then, you can pick the one thing you love most and write about it  (Literature Quotes) Nothing dates like hate and in literature a little of it goes a very long way  (Literature Quotes) Though dissenters seem to question everything in sight, they are actually bundles of dusty answers and never conceived a new question. What offends us most in the literature of dissent is the lack of hesitation and wonder  (Literature Quotes) The liveliness of literature lies in its exceptionality, in being the individual, idiosyncratic vision of one human being, in which, to our delight and great surprise, we may find our own vision reflected  (Literature Quotes) How has the human spirit ever survived the terrific literature with which it has had to contend?  (Literature Quotes) Modern writers are the moons of literature; they shine with reflected light, with light borrowed from the ancients  (Literature Quotes) Anyone who reads advice books about romance has one problem to begin with: bad taste in literature  (Literature Quotes) The question of manuscript changes is very important for literary criticism, the psychology of creation and other aspects of the study of literature  (Literature Quotes)
