Individual Selection

Famous quotes containing the words individual and/or selection:

“In each individual the spirit is made flesh, in each one the whole of creation suffers, in each one a Savior is crucified.”
—Hermann Hesse (1877–1962)

“Every writer is necessarily a critic—that is, each sentence is a skeleton accompanied by enormous activity of rejection; and each selection is governed by general principles concerning truth, force, beauty, and so on.... The critic that is in every fabulist is like the iceberg—nine-tenths of him is under water.”
—Thornton Wilder (1897–1975)
