State Response

Famous quotes containing the words state and/or response:

“What thou art is mine;
Our state cannot be severed, we are one,
One flesh; to lose thee were to lose myself.”

“The truth is that literature, particularly fiction, is not the pure medium we sometimes assume it to be. Response to it is affected by things other than its own intrinsic quality; by a curiosity or lack of it about the people it deals with, their outlook, their way of life.”
