Famous quotes containing the word prose:

    “Poetry is the language in which man explores his own amazement ... says heaven and earth in one word ... speaks of himself and his predicament as though for the first time. It has the virtue of being able to say twice as much as prose in half the time, and the drawback, if you do not give it your full attention, of seeming to say half as much in twice the time.”
    —Christopher Fry (b. 1907)

    “Poetry has done enough when it charms, but prose must also convince.”
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)

    “Good Heavens! For more than forty years I have been speaking prose without knowing it.”
    —Molière [Jean Baptiste Poquelin] (1622–1673)
