Receive Sequence

Famous quotes containing the words receive and/or sequence:

    But what have I, but what have I, my friend,

    It isn’t that you subordinate your ideas to the force of the facts in autobiography but that you construct a sequence of stories to bind up the facts with a persuasive hypothesis that unravels your history’s meaning.
    Philip Roth (b. 1933)
