Famous quotes containing the word characters:

    “What makes literature interesting is that it does not survive its translation. The characters in a novel are made out of the sentences. That’s what their substance is.”
    —Jonathan Miller (b. 1936)

    “Though they be mad and dead as nails,
    Heads of the characters hammer through daisies;
    Break in the sun till the sun breaks down,
    And death shall have no dominion.”
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
