Famous quotes containing the words full and/or text:
“But countless plagues wander among men; for earth is full of evils, and the sea is full.”
—Hesiod (c. 8th century B.C.)
“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 (1899–1986)
