Famous quotes containing the words book and/or series:
“The Enormous Room seems to me to be the book that has nearest approached the mood of reckless adventure in which men will reach the white heat of imagination needed to fuse the soggy disjointed complexity of the industrial life about us into seething fluid of creation. There can be no more playing safe.”
—John Dos Passos (1896–1970)
“Personality is an unbroken series of successful gestures.”
—F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
