Famous quotes containing the words world and/or lays:

    We should always remember that the work of art is invariably the creation of a new world, so that the first thing we should do is to study that new world as closely as possible, approaching it as something brand new, having no obvious connection with the worlds we already know. When this new world has been closely studied, then and only then let us examine its links with other worlds, other branches of knowledge.
    Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)

    The intention of cheating no one lays us open to being cheated ourselves.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
