Horror Literature

Famous quotes containing the words horror and/or literature:

“Whoever inquires about our childhood wants to know something about our soul.

—Erika Burkart (20th century)

“How simple the writing of literature would be if it were only necessary to write in another way what has been well written. It is because we have had such great writers in the past that a writer is driven far out past where he can go, out to where no one can help him.”
