Famous quotes containing the words important and/or people:
“The last publicized center of American writing was Manhattan. Its writers became known as the New York Intellectuals. With important connections to publishing, and universities, with access to the major book reviews, they were able to pose as the vanguard of American culture when they were so obsessed with the two Joes—McCarthy and Stalin—that they were to produce only two artists, Saul Bellow and Philip Roth, who left town.”
—Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)
“Most people know no other way of judging men’s worth but by the vogue they are in, or the fortunes they have met with.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
