Audience Member

Famous quotes containing the words audience and/or member:

    The problem of the novelist who wishes to write about a man’s encounter with God is how he shall make the experience—which is both natural and supernatural—understandable, and credible, to his reader. In any age this would be a problem, but in our own, it is a well- nigh insurmountable one. Today’s audience is one in which religious feeling has become, if not atrophied, at least vaporous and sentimental.
    Flannery O’Connor (1925–1964)

    And the member for the constituency
    Feeds the five thousand, and has plenty back.
    William Robert Rodgers (1909–1969)
