Famous quotes containing the word literature:

    “How simple the writing of literature would be if it were only necessary to write in another way what has been well written. It is because we have had such great writers in the past that a writer is driven far out past where he can go, out to where no one can help him.”
    —Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)

    “In literature as in ethics, there is danger, as well as glory, in being subtle. Aristocracy isolates us.”
    —Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)

    “The use of literature is to afford us a platform whence we may command a view of our present life, a purchase by which we may move it.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
