Famous quotes containing the words living and/or areas:
“I know what love is. Its understanding. Its you and me and let the rest of the world go by. Just the two of us living our lives together happily and proudly. No self-torture and no doubt. Its enduring and its everlasting. Nothing can change it. Nothing can change us, Ollie. Thats what I think love is.”
—Dewitt Bodeen (19081988)
“The point is, that the function of the novel seems to be changing; it has become an outpost of journalism; we read novels for information about areas of life we dont knowNigeria, South Africa, the American army, a coal-mining village, coteries in Chelsea, etc. We read to find out what is going on. One novel in five hundred or a thousand has the quality a novel should have to make it a novelthe quality of philosophy.”
—Doris Lessing (b. 1919)
