Millennium Plot

Famous quotes containing the words millennium and/or plot:

    The millennium will not come as soon as women vote, but it will not come until they do vote.
    Anna Howard Shaw (1847–1919)

    We have defined a story as a narrative of events arranged in their time-sequence. A plot is also a narrative of events, the emphasis falling on causality. “The king died and then the queen died” is a story. “The king died, and then the queen died of grief” is a plot. The time sequence is preserved, but the sense of causality overshadows it.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)
