Famous quotes containing the words narrative and/or voice:

    “Yet poetry, though the last and finest result, is a natural fruit. As naturally as the oak bears an acorn, and the vine a gourd, man bears a poem, either spoken or done. It is the chief and most memorable success, for history is but a prose narrative of poetic deeds.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “On me your voice falls as they say love should,
    Like an enormous yes. My Crescent City
    Is where your speech alone is understood.”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
