Famous quotes containing the words stone and/or walls:
“The subject of the novel is reality liberated from soul. The reader in complete independence presented with a structured process: let him evaluate it, not the author. The façade of the novel cannot be other than stone or steel, flashing electrically or dark, but silent.”
—Alfred Döblin (1878–1957)
“The more enlightened our houses are, the more their walls ooze ghosts.”
—Italo Calvino (1923–1985)
