Independence Day

Famous quotes containing the words independence and/or day:

“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)

“... you learned to compress almost everything in the first sentence, and the only phrase you needed was “plans were made to organize.” It took me a day to learn this, and that is all you have to learn in newspaper writing.”
