Famous quotes containing the words real and/or situation:
“The great enemy of clear language is insincerity. When there is a gap between one’s real and one’s declared aims, one turns as it were instinctively to long words and exhausted idioms, like a cuttlefish squirting out ink.”
—George Orwell (1903–1950)
“For a novelist, a given historic situation is an anthropologic laboratory in which he explores his basic question: What is human existence?”
