Famous quotes containing the words independence and/or army:
“The subject of the novel is reality liberated from soul. The reader in complete independence presented with a structured process: let him evaluate it, not the author. The façade of the novel cannot be other than stone or steel, flashing electrically or dark, but silent.”
—Alfred Döblin (1878–1957)
“Like an army defeated
The snow hath retreated,”
—William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
