Enhanced Co-operation - Literature

Famous quotes containing the word literature:

“A person of mature years and ripe development, who is expecting nothing from literature but the corroboration and renewal of past ideas, may find satisfaction in a lucidity so complete as to occasion no imaginative excitement, but young and ambitious students are not content with it. They seek the excitement because they are capable of the growth that it accompanies.”
—Charles Horton Cooley (1864–1929)

“No state can build
A literature that shall at once be sound
And sad on a foundation of well-being.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)

“Our American professors like their literature clear and cold and pure and very dead.”
—Sinclair Lewis (1885–1951)
