Famous quotes containing the words production and/or volume:
“The problem of culture is seldom grasped correctly. The goal of a culture is not the greatest possible happiness of a people, nor is it the unhindered development of all their talents; instead, culture shows itself in the correct proportion of these developments. Its aim points beyond earthly happiness: the production of great works is the aim of culture.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (18441900)
“F.R. Leaviss eat up your broccoli approach to fiction emphasises this junkfood/wholefood dichotomy. If reading a novelfor the eighteenth century reader, the most frivolous of diversionsdid not, by the middle of the twentieth century, make you a better person in some way, then you might as well flush the offending volume down the toilet, which was by far the best place for the undigested excreta of dubious nourishment.”
—Angela Carter (19401992)
