Famous quotes containing the words fictional, books and/or music:
“One of the proud joys of the man of letters—if that man of letters is an artist—is to feel within himself the power to immortalize at will anything he chooses to immortalize. Insignificant though he may be, he is conscious of possessing a creative divinity. God creates lives; the man of imagination creates fictional lives which may make a profound and as it were more living impression on the world’s memory.”
—Edmond De Goncourt (1822–1896)
“Good books do not make people wiser or happier—only more conscious.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“Music, ho, music such as charmeth sleep!”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
