Famous quotes containing the words comic and/or book:
“Nature is a setting that fits equally well a comic or a mourning piece. In good health, the air is a cordial of incredible virtue. Crossing a bare common, in snow puddles, at twilight, under a clouded sky, without having in my thoughts any occurrence of special good fortune, I have enjoyed a perfect exhilaration. I am glad to the brink of fear.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“When a man wants to write a book full of unassailable facts, he always goes to the British Museum.”
—Anthony Trollope (18151882)
