Short Subject

Famous quotes containing the words short and/or subject:

    Hemingway is terribly limited. His technique is good for short stories, for people who meet once in a bar very late at night, but do not enter into relations. But not for the novel.
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)

    Order is Heaven’s first law; and this confessed,
    Some are, and must be, greater than the rest,
    More rich, more wise; but who infers from hence
    That such are happier, shocks all common sense.
    Condition, circumstance, is not the thing;
    Bliss is the same in subject or in king.
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
