Famous quotes containing the words major and/or events:
“A major power can afford a military debacle only when it looks like a political victory.”
—Friedrich Dürrenmatt (1921–1990)
“We have defined a story as a narrative of events arranged in their time-sequence. A plot is also a narrative of events, the emphasis falling on causality. “The king died and then the queen died” is a story. “The king died, and then the queen died of grief” is a plot. The time sequence is preserved, but the sense of causality overshadows it.”
—E.M. (Edward Morgan)
