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

    There is a difference between dramatizing your sensibility and your personality. The literary works which we think of as classics did the former. Much modern writing does the latter, and so has an affinity with, say, night-club acts in all their shoddy immediacy.
    Paul Horgan (b. 1904)

    Society has really no graver interest than the well-being of the literary class.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    The last thing one discovers in composing a work is what to put first.
    Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
