Ark Narrative

Famous quotes containing the words ark and/or narrative:

    My ark sings in the sun
    At God speeded summer’s end
    And the flood flowers now.
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    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)
