Famous quotes containing the word fiction:

    “Americans will listen, but they do not care to read. War and Peace must wait for the leisure of retirement, which never really comes: meanwhile it helps to furnish the living room. Blockbusting fiction is bought as furniture. Unread, it maintains its value. Read, it looks like money wasted. Cunningly, Americans know that books contain a person, and they want the person, not the book.”
    —Anthony Burgess (b. 1917)

    “If there were genders to genres, fiction would be unquestionably feminine.”
    —William Gass (b. 1924)

    “It is with fiction as with religion: it should present another world, and yet one to which we feel the tie.”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)
