Inhabitants

Famous quotes containing the word inhabitants:

“Life’s so ordinary that literature has to deal with the exceptional. Exceptional talent, power, social position, wealth.... Drama begins where there’s freedom of choice. And freedom of choice begins when social or psychological conditions are exceptional. That’s why the inhabitants of imaginative literature have always been recruited from the pages of Who’s Who.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

“What are these,
So withered, and so wild in their attire,
That look not like th’ inhabitants o’th’ earth,
And yet are on’t?”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
