Famous quotes containing the words continuous, real and/or function:

“There was a continuous movement now, from Zone Five to Zone Four. And from Zone Four to Zone Three, and from us, up the pass.

—Doris Lessing (b. 1919)

—Max Frisch (1911–1991)

“Literature does not exist in a vacuum. Writers as such have a definite social function exactly proportional to their ability as writers. This is their main use.”
