Famous quotes containing the word literature:

    Just as it is true that a stream cannot rise above its source, so it is true that a national literature cannot rise above the moral level of the social conditions of the people from whom it derives its inspiration.
    James Connolly (1870–1916)

    Great literature is simply language charged with meaning to the utmost possible degree.
    Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

    The truth is rarely pure and never simple. Modern life would be very tedious if it were either, and modern literature a complete impossibility!
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
