Major Themes

In addition, as Anita sees Jean-Claude "die" with the dawn, gives him blood to save his life, and by spending a book with Jean-Claude but not Richard, Jean-Claude becomes a more substantial rival for Anita's affections.

Famous quotes containing the words major and/or themes:
“When I see that the nineteenth century has crowned the idolatry of Art with the deification of Love, so that every poet is supposed to have pierced to the holy of holies when he has announced that Love is the Supreme, or the Enough, or the All, I feel that Art was safer in the hands of the most fanatical of Cromwell’s major generals than it will be if ever it gets into mine.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
“I suppose you think that persons who are as old as your father and myself are always thinking about very grave things, but I know that we are meditating the same old themes that we did when we were ten years old, only we go more gravely about it.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
