Famous quotes containing the word literature:

    “Herman Melville was as separated from a civilized literature as the lost Atlantis was said to have been from the great peoples of the earth.”
    —Edward Dahlberg (1900–1977)

    “Our leading men are not of much account and never have been, but the average of the people is immense, beyond all history. Sometimes I think in all departments, literature and art included, that will be the way our superiority will exhibit itself. We will not have great individuals or great leaders, but a great average bulk, unprecedentedly great.”
    —Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    “The desire to create literature leads to frights, grunts, and coy looks.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
