Graves/history

Famous quotes containing the words graves and/or history:

    Magnified one thousand times, the insect
    Looks farcically human; laugh if you will!
    Bald head, stage-fairy wings, blear eyes,
    A caved-in chest, hairy black mandibles,
    Long spindly thighs.
    —Robert Graves (1895–1985)

    It takes a great deal of history to produce a little literature.
    Henry James (1843–1916)
