Faculty Rank

Famous quotes containing the words faculty and/or rank:

“To write well, to have style ... is to paint. The master faculty of style is therefore the visual memory. If a writer does not see what he describes—countrysides and figures, movements and gestures—how could he have a style, that is originality?”
—Rémy De Gourmont (1858–1915)

“Your rank is way down below his when you seek to establish the exceptions and he seeks to establish the rule.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
