Born Novelist

Famous quotes containing the words born and/or novelist:

    I was born upon thy bank, river,
    My blood flows in thy stream,
    And thou meanderest forever
    At the bottom of my dream.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The novel is a perfect medium for revealing to us the changing rainbow of our living relationships. The novel can help us to live, as nothing else can: no didactic Scripture, anyhow. If the novelist keeps his thumb out of the pan.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
