Famous quotes containing the words literary, significance and/or criticism:

    In the course of a life devoted less to living than to reading, I have verified many times that literary intentions and theories are nothing more than stimuli and that the final work usually ignores or even contradicts them.
    Jorge Luis Borges (1899–1986)

    To grasp the full significance of life is the actor’s duty, to interpret it is his problem, and to express it his dedication.
    Marlon Brando (b. 1924)

    Like speaks to like only; labor to labor, philosophy to philosophy, criticism to criticism, poetry to poetry. Literature speaks how much still to the past, how little to the future, how much to the East, how little to the West.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
