Famous quotes containing the words literary and/or figures:

    In general I do not draw well with literary men—not that I dislike them but I never know what to say to them after I have praised their last publication.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    I will stand on, and continue to use, the figures I have used, because I believe they are correct. Now, I’m not going to deny that you don’t now and then slip up on something; no one bats a thousand.
    Ronald Reagan (b. 1911)
