Famous quotes containing the word fiction:

    If there were genders to genres, fiction would be unquestionably feminine.
    William Gass (b. 1924)

    ... if we can imagine the art of fiction come alive and standing in our midst, she would undoubtedly bid us to break her and bully her, as well as honour and love her, for so her youth is renewed and her sovereignty assured.
    Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)
