Famous quotes containing the words literary work, literary and/or work:

    This great kindness pervades Chekhov’s literary work, but it is not a matter of program or of literary message with him, but simply the natural coloration of his talent.
    Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)

    Plato—who may have understood better what forms the mind of man than do some of our contemporaries who want their children exposed only to “real” people and everyday events—knew what intellectual experience made for true humanity. He suggested that the future citizens of his ideal republic begin their literary education with the telling of myths, rather than with mere facts or so-called rational teachings.
    Bruno Bettelheim (20th century)

    Bless you, of course you’re keeping me from work,
    But the thing of it is, I need to be kept.
    There’s work enough to do there’s always that;
    But behind’s behind. The worst that you can do
    Is set me back a little more behind.
    I shan’t catch up in this world, anyway.
    I’d rather you’d not go unless you must.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
