Famous quotes containing the word literature:

    “Literature is not exhaustible, for the sufficient and simple reason that a single book is not. A book is not an isolated entity: it is a narration, an axis of innumerable narrations. One literature differs from another, either before or after it, not so much because of the text as for the manner in which it is read.”
    —Jorge Luis Borges (1899–1986)

    “The struggle of literature is in fact a struggle to escape from the confines of language; it stretches out from the utmost limits of what can be said; what stirs literature is the call and attraction of what is not in the dictionary.”
    —Italo Calvino (1923–1985)

    “Many writers who choose to be active in the world lose not virtue but time, and that stillness without which literature cannot be made.”
    —Gore Vidal (b. 1925)
