Famous quotes containing the words literature and, literature and/or art:

    “The newspapers, I perceive, devote some of their columns specially to politics or government without charge; and this, one would say, is all that saves it; but as I love literature and to some extent the truth also, I never read those columns at any rate. I do not wish to blunt my sense of right so much.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Everything is becoming science fiction. From the margins of an almost invisible literature has sprung the intact reality of the 20th century.”
    —J.G. (James Graham)

    “Wherever art appears, life disappears.”
    —Francis Picabia (1878–1953)
