Famous quotes containing the words general, language and/or independent:

    Some people are under the impression that all that is required to make a good fisherman is the ability to tell lies easily and without blushing; but this is a mistake. Mere bald fabrication is useless; the veriest tyro can manage that. It is in the circumstantial detail, the embellishing touches of probability, the general air of scrupulous—almost of pedantic—veracity, that the experienced angler is seen.
    Jerome K. Jerome (1859–1927)

    So runs my dream: but what am I?
    An infant crying in the night;
    An infant crying for the light:
    And with no language but a cry.
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    So far as I am individually concerned, & independent of my pocket, it is my earnest desire to write those sort of books which are said to “fail.”
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
