Famous quotes containing the words fiction and/or community:
“The beginning of human knowledge is through the senses, and the fiction writer begins where human perception begins. He appeals through the senses, and you cannot appeal to the senses with abstractions.”

“The community and family networks which helped sustain earlier generations have become scarcer for growing numbers of young parents.
