Famous quotes containing the words fictional and/or people:

    One of the proud joys of the man of letters—if that man of letters is an artist—is to feel within himself the power to immortalize at will anything he chooses to immortalize. Insignificant though he may be, he is conscious of possessing a creative divinity. God creates lives; the man of imagination creates fictional lives which may make a profound and as it were more living impression on the world’s memory.
    Edmond De Goncourt (1822–1896)

    The clearest explanation for the failure of any marriage is that the two people are incompatible—that is, that one is male and the other female.
    Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
