Famous quotes containing the words collins and/or classics:

    “Oh! Susanna, do not cry for me;
    I come from Alabama with my banjo on my knee.”
    —Stephen Collins Foster (1826–1864)

    “There is a difference between dramatizing your sensibility and your personality. The literary works which we think of as classics did the former. Much modern writing does the latter, and so has an affinity with, say, night-club acts in all their shoddy immediacy.”
    —Paul Horgan (b. 1904)
