Famous quotes containing the words full and/or text:
“As it is with the love of the body, so with the friendship of the mind, the full is only reached by admittance to the most retired places.”
—Samuel Beckett (19061989)
“Literature is not exhaustible, for the sufficient and simple reason that a single book is not. A book is not an isolated entity: it is a narration, an axis of innumerable narrations. One literature differs from another, either before or after it, not so much because of the text as for the manner in which it is read.”
—Jorge Luis Borges (18991986)
