Famous quotes containing the words writers and/or musicians:

    Great writers arrive among us like new diseases—threatening, powerful, impatient for patients to pick up their virus, irresistible.
    Craig Raine (b. 1944)

    We stand in the tumult of a festival.
    What festival? This loud, disordered mooch?
    These hospitaliers? These brute-like guests?
    These musicians dubbing at a tragedy,
    A-dub, a-dub, which is made up of this:
    That there are no lines to speak? There is no play.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
