Famous quotes containing the word literature:

    “I make a virtue of my suffering
    From nearly everything that goes on round me.

    I shall not lack for pain to keep me awake.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    A literature that shall at once be sound
    And sad on a foundation of well-being.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)
