Famous quotes containing the word literature:

    “If a nation’s literature declines, the nation atrophies and decays.”
    —Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

    “The calmest husbands make the stormiest wives.”
    —17th-century English proverb, pt. 1, quoted in Isaac d’Israeli, Curiosities of Literature (1834)

    “Life’s so ordinary that literature has to deal with the exceptional. Exceptional talent, power, social position, wealth.... Drama begins where there’s freedom of choice. And freedom of choice begins when social or psychological conditions are exceptional. That’s why the inhabitants of imaginative literature have always been recruited from the pages of Who’s Who.”
    —Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
