Famous quotes containing the word text:

    “Don Pedro. But when shall we set the savage bull’s horns on the sensible Benedick’s head?
    Claudio. Yes, and text underneath, “Here dwells Benedick, the married man?””
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Literature is not exhaustible, for the sufficient and simple reason that a single book is not. A book is not an isolated entity: it is a narration, an axis of innumerable narrations. One literature differs from another, either before or after it, not so much because of the text as for the manner in which it is read.”
    —Jorge Luis Borges (1899–1986)

    “I am so glad you have been able to preserve the text in all of its impurity.”
    —Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)
