Famous quotes containing the words prose and/or fiction:
“Speech and prose are not the same thing. They have different wave-lengths, for speech moves at the speed of light, where prose moves at the speed of the alphabet, and must be consecutive and grammatical and word-perfect. Prose cannot gesticulate. Speech can sometimes do nothing more.”
—James Kenneth Stephens (18821950)
“The good ended happily, and the bad unhappily. That is what Fiction means.”
—Oscar Wilde (18541900)
