Motto/literature

Famous quotes containing the words motto and/or literature:

“My motto is: “Lord I disbelieve—help thou my unbelief.””
—E.M. (Edward Morgan)

“Converse with a mind that is grandly simple, and literature looks like word-catching. The simplest utterances are worthiest to be written, yet are they so cheap, and so things of course, that, in the infinite riches of the soul, it is like gathering a few pebbles off the ground, or bottling a little air in a phial, when the whole earth and the whole atmosphere are ours.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
