Famous quotes containing the words subject, matter and/or domain:
“I have always hated biography, and more especially, autobiography. If biography, the writer invariably finds it necessary to plaster the subject with praises, flattery and adulation and to invest him with all the Christian graces. If autobiography, the same plan is followed, but the writer apologizes for it.”
—Carolyn Wells (18621942)
“The immortality of the soul is a matter which is of so great consequence to us and which touches us so profoundly that we must have lost all feeling to be indifferent about it.”
—Blaise Pascal (16231662)
“In the domain of art there is no light without heat.”
—Victor Hugo (18021885)
