Hour Episodes

Famous quotes containing the words hour and/or episodes:

    Around, the night drops swiftly down
    Its veils; does not condemn
    Or praise the different actions done.
    The hour that strikes across the town
    Caresses all and injures none
    As sleep approaches them.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    What is a novel if not a conviction of our fellow-men’s existence strong enough to take upon itself a form of imagined life clearer than reality and whose accumulated verisimilitude of selected episodes puts to shame the pride of documentary history?
    Joseph Conrad (1857–1924)
