Famous quotes containing the words line and/or plots:
“Writing fiction has developed in me an abiding respect for the unknown in a human lifetime and a sense of where to look for the threads, how to follow, how to connect, find in the thick of the tangle what clear line persists. The strands are all there: to the memory nothing is ever really lost.”
—Eudora Welty (b. 1909)
“O opportunity! thy guilt is great,
Tis thou that executst the traitors treason;
Thou setst the wolf where he the lamb may get;
Whoever plots the sin, thou pointst the season;
Tis thou that spurnst at right, at law, at reason;
And in thy shady cell, where none may spy him,
Sits Sin to seize the souls that wander by him.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
