Famous quotes containing the word literature:

    “Philosophy, astronomy, and politics were marked at zero, I remember. Botany variable, geology profound as regards the mud stains from any region within fifty miles of town, chemistry eccentric, anatomy unsystematic, sensational literature and crime records unique, violin player, boxer, swordsman, lawyer, and self-poisoner by cocaine and tobacco.”
    —Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930)

    “Despite your best efforts, you could not invent a better police force for literature than criticism and the author’s own conscience.”
    —Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    “[The] attempt to devote oneself to literature alone is a most deceptive thing, and ... often, paradoxically, it is literature that suffers for it.”
    —Václav Havel (b. 1936)
