Famous quotes containing the words vincent, paul, literature and/or fiction:

    Childhood is not from birth to a certain age and at a certain age.
    The child is grown, and puts away childish things.
    Childhood is the kingdom where nobody dies.
    Nobody that matters, that is.
    —Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892–1950)

    Our birthdays are feathers in the broad wing of time.
    —Jean Paul Richter (1763–1825)

    The struggle of literature is in fact a struggle to escape from the confines of language; it stretches out from the utmost limits of what can be said; what stirs literature is the call and attraction of what is not in the dictionary.
    Italo Calvino (1923–1985)

    We ignore thriller writers at our peril. Their genre is the political condition. They massage our dreams and magnify our nightmares. If it is true that we always need enemies, then we will always need writers of fiction to encode our fears and fantasies.
    Daniel Easterman (b. 1949)
