Famous quotes containing the words plato and/or biography:
“It seems that I must bid the Muse to pack,
Choose Plato and Plotinus for a friend
Until imagination, ear and eye,
Can be content with argument and deal
In abstract things; or be derided by
A sort of battered kettle at the heel.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“There never was a good biography of a good novelist. There couldn’t be. He is too many people, if he’s any good.”
