Famous quotes containing the words hassan and/or academy:
“Quotations offer one kind of break in what the eye can see, the ear can hear.”
—Ihab Hassan (b. 1925)
“I realized early on that the academy and the literary world alike—and I don’t think there really is a distinction between the two—are always dominated by fools, knaves, charlatans and bureaucrats. And that being the case, any human being, male or female, of whatever status, who has a voice of her or his own, is not going to be liked.”
—Harold Bloom (b. 1930)
