Famous quotes containing the words performance and/or liquid:
“When a book, any sort of book, reaches a certain intensity of artistic performance it becomes literature.

It may also be a perfection of control over the movement of a story similar to the control a great pitcher has over the ball.”
—Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)
“What slender Youth bedew’d with liquid odours
Courts thee on Roses in some pleasant Cave,”
