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)

    ... all fiction may be autobiography, but all autobiography is of course fiction.
    Shirley Abbott (b. 1934)
