Famous quotes containing the word importance:

    Society is the stage on which manners are shown; novels are the literature. Novels are the journal or record of manners; and the new importance of these books derives from the fact, that the novelist begins to penetrate the surface, and treat this part of life more worthily.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Any novel of importance has a purpose. If only the “purpose” be large enough, and not at outs with the passional inspiration.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    There are secret articles in our treaties with the gods, of more importance than all the rest, which the historian can never know.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
