Famous quotes containing the words narrative and/or shorts:
“We have defined a story as a narrative of events arranged in their time-sequence. A plot is also a narrative of events, the emphasis falling on causality. “The king died and then the queen died” is a story. “The king died, and then the queen died of grief” is a plot. The time sequence is preserved, but the sense of causality overshadows it.”
—E.M. (Edward Morgan)
“I don’t want to smoke cigars or go to stag parties, wear jockey shorts or pick up the check.”
—Shelley Winters (b. 1922)
