Famous quotes containing the words areas and/or supplied:
“The point is, that the function of the novel seems to be changing; it has become an outpost of journalism; we read novels for information about areas of life we don’t know—Nigeria, South Africa, the American army, a coal-mining village, coteries in Chelsea, etc. We read to find out what is going on. One novel in five hundred or a thousand has the quality a novel should have to make it a novel—the quality of philosophy.”
—Doris Lessing (b. 1919)
“There is no substitute for the comfort supplied by the utterly taken-for-granted relationship.”
—Iris Murdoch (b. 1919)
