Famous quotes containing the words preserved and/or examples:

    The unity of effect or impression is a point of the greatest importance. It is clear, moreover, that this unity cannot be thoroughly preserved in productions whose perusal cannot be completed at one sitting.
    Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)

    Histories are more full of examples of the fidelity of dogs than of friends.
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
