Famous quotes containing the word literature:

    “The high-water mark, so to speak, of Socialist literature is W.H. Auden, a sort of gutless Kipling.”
    —George Orwell (1903–1950)

    “Our leading men are not of much account and never have been, but the average of the people is immense, beyond all history. Sometimes I think in all departments, literature and art included, that will be the way our superiority will exhibit itself. We will not have great individuals or great leaders, but a great average bulk, unprecedentedly great.”
    —Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    “In literature the ambition of the novice is to acquire the literary language: the struggle of the adept is to get rid of it.”
    —George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
