Famous quotes containing the words important and/or works:
“Its very good for an idea to be commonplace. The important thing is that a new idea should develop out of what is already there so that it soon becomes an old acquaintance. Old acquaintances arent by any means always welcome, but at least one cant be mistaken as to who or what they are.”
—Penelope Fitzgerald (b. 1916)
“In all Works of This, and of the Dramatic Kind, STORY, or AMUSEMENT, should be considered as little more than the Vehicle to the more necessary INSTRUCTION.”
—Samuel Richardson (16891761)
