Borges Wrote

Famous quotes containing the words borges and/or wrote:

    Imprecision is tolerable and verisimilar in literature, because we always tend towards it in life.
    —Jorge Luis Borges (1899–1986)

    You remind me of a child-friend who once wrote to tell me about her sister being married. “Now I will tell you all about Bessie’s wedding.” Then came a long account of bridesmaids, and breakfast, and everything else, except the name of the bride-groom! That of course didn’t matter: the great thing was to get married somehow.
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
