Joy/literature

Famous quotes containing the words joy and/or literature:

“I was comfortable in all, I admit, but at the same time, nothing satisfied me. Each joy made me seek another.”
—Albert Camus (1913–1960)

“Literature is not exhaustible, for the sufficient and simple reason that a single book is not. A book is not an isolated entity: it is a narration, an axis of innumerable narrations. One literature differs from another, either before or after it, not so much because of the text as for the manner in which it is read.”
—Jorge Luis Borges (1899–1986)
