Italics Added

Famous quotes containing the words italics and/or added:

“We are as much informed of a writer’s genius by what he selects as by what he originates. We read the quotation with his eyes, and find a new and fervent sense; as a passage from one of the poets, well recited, borrows new interest from the rendering. As the journals say, “the italics are ours.””
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“The world was not created once and for all time for each of us individually. There are added to it in the course of our life things of which we have never had any suspicion.”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
