Famous quotes containing the words literary and/or theories:
“... my last work is no sooner on the stands than letters come, suggesting a subject. The grandmothers of strangers are crying from the grave, it seems, for literary recognition; it is bewildering, the number of salty grandfathers, aunts and uncles that languish unappreciated.”
—Catherine Drinker Bowen (1897–1973)
“A work of art that contains theories is like an object on which the price tag has been left.”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
