Documentary Competition

Famous quotes containing the words documentary and/or competition:

    What is a novel if not a conviction of our fellow-men’s existence strong enough to take upon itself a form of imagined life clearer than reality and whose accumulated verisimilitude of selected episodes puts to shame the pride of documentary history?
    Joseph Conrad (1857–1924)

    Every sect is a moral check on its neighbour. Competition is as wholesome in religion as in commerce.
