Pride Events

Famous quotes containing the words pride and/or events:

    Gather therefore the Rose, whilest yet is prime,
    For soone comes age, that will her pride deflowre:
    Gather the Rose of love, whilest yet is time,
    Whilest loving thou mayst loved be with equall crime.’
    Edmund Spenser (1552?–1599)

    We have defined a story as a narrative of events arranged in their time-sequence. A plot is also a narrative of events, the emphasis falling on causality. “The king died and then the queen died” is a story. “The king died, and then the queen died of grief” is a plot. The time sequence is preserved, but the sense of causality overshadows it.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)
