Famous quotes containing the words american and/or literary:

    I pledge you—I pledge myself to a new deal for the American people.
    Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)

    There is something about the literary life that repels me, all this desperate building of castles on cobwebs, the long-drawn acrimonious struggle to make something important which we all know will be gone forever in a few years, the miasma of failure which is to me almost as offensive as the cheap gaudiness of popular success.
    Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)
