Famous quotes containing the words literary and/or journals:

    “In general I do not draw well with literary men—not that I dislike them but I never know what to say to them after I have praised their last publication.”
    —George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    “Reality has become so absorbing that the streets, the television, and the journals have confiscated the public interest and people are no longer thirsty for culture on a higher level.”
    —Andre Plesu (b. 1948)
