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 (18991986)
“There is no room for the impurities of literature in an essay.... the essay must be purepure like water or pure like wine, but pure from dullness, deadness, and deposits of extraneous matter.”
—Virginia Woolf (18821941)
“Great literature is simply language charged with meaning to the utmost possible degree.”
—Ezra Pound (18851972)
