R%c3%a9my de Gourmont

Famous quotes containing the word gourmont:

    To write well, to have style ... is to paint. The master faculty of style is therefore the visual memory. If a writer does not see what he describes—countrysides and figures, movements and gestures—how could he have a style, that is originality?
    —Rémy De Gourmont (1858–1915)
