Comic Books in Finnish Dialects

Famous quotes containing the words comic, books and/or finnish:

    “The deeply thoughtful and human consciousness of a Macbeth is not found in comedy. Comic action tends to be as Bergson described it, physical or purblind, instead of highly conscious. Similarly, the great comic actor specializes in the presentation of mental obtuseness.”
    —William G. McCollom (b. 1911)

    “Most of us who turn to any subject we love remember some morning or evening hour when we got on a high stool to reach down an untried volume, or sat with parted lips listening to a new talker, or for very lack of books began to listen to the voices within, as the first traceable beginning of our love.”
    —George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    “A conversation in English in Finnish and in French can not be held at the same time nor with indifference ever or after a time.”
    —Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
