Famous quotes containing the word literature:
“Many writers who choose to be active in the world lose not virtue but time, and that stillness without which literature cannot be made.”
—Gore Vidal (b. 1925)
“To me, literature is a calling, even a kind of salvation. It connects me with an enterprise that is over 2,000 years old. What do we have from the past? Art and thought. Thats what lasts. Thats what continues to feed people and given them an idea of something better. A better state of ones feelings or simply the idea of a silence in ones self that allows one to think or to feel. Which to me is the same.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
“The function of literature, through all its mutations, has been to make us aware of the particularity of selves, and the high authority of the self in its quarrel with its society and its culture. Literature is in that sense subversive.”
—Lionel Trilling (19051975)
