Famous quotes containing the words style and/or influences:
“One never tires of what is well written, style is life! It is the very blood of thought!”
—Gustave Flaubert (18211880)
“Professors of literature, who for the most part are genteel but mediocre men, can make but a poor defense of their profession, and the professors of science, who are frequently men of great intelligence but of limited interests and education, feel a politely disguised contempt for it; and thus the study of one of the most pervasive and powerful influences on human life is traduced and neglected.”
—Yvor Winters (19001968)
