Famous quotes containing the words previous and/or incident:
“I will frankly declare, that after passing a few weeks in this valley of the Marquesas, I formed a higher estimate of human nature than I had ever before entertained. But alas! since then I have been one of the crew of a man-of-war, and the pent-up wickedness of five hundred men has nearly overturned all my previous theories.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
“What is character but the determination of incident? What is incident but the illustration of character?”
—Henry James (1843–1916)
