Famous quotes containing the words original, band, member and/or details:

    An original artist is unable to copy. So he has only to copy in order to be original.
    Jean Cocteau (1889–1963)

    And the heavy night hung dark
    The hills and waters o’er,
    When a band of exiles moored their bark
    On the wild New England shore.
    Felicia Dorothea Hemans (1783–1835)

    If another member of the church sins against you, go and point out the fault when the two of you are alone. If the member listens to you, you have regained that one.
    Bible: New Testament, Matthew 18:15.

    There was a time when the average reader read a novel simply for the moral he could get out of it, and however naïve that may have been, it was a good deal less naïve than some of the limited objectives he has now. Today novels are considered to be entirely concerned with the social or economic or psychological forces that they will by necessity exhibit, or with those details of daily life that are for the good novelist only means to some deeper end.
    Flannery O’Connor (1925–1964)
