Famous quotes containing the word literature:

    Life’s so ordinary that literature has to deal with the exceptional. Exceptional talent, power, social position, wealth.... Drama begins where there’s freedom of choice. And freedom of choice begins when social or psychological conditions are exceptional. That’s why the inhabitants of imaginative literature have always been recruited from the pages of Who’s Who.
    Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

    In literature as in ethics, there is danger, as well as glory, in being subtle. Aristocracy isolates us.
    Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)

    If a nation’s literature declines, the nation atrophies and decays.
    Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
