Famous quotes containing the words homage and/or parody:
“Your business is not to catch men with show,
With homage to the perishable clay,
But lift them over it, ignore it all,
Make them forget there’s such a thing as flesh.
Your business is to paint the souls of men—”
—Robert Browning (1812–1889)
“Satire is a lesson, parody is a game.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
