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 (1882–1950)

    The good ended happily, and the bad unhappily. That is what Fiction means.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
