Famous quotes containing the word literature:

    “Despite your best efforts, you could not invent a better police force for literature than criticism and the author’s own conscience.”
    —Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    “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 (1905–1975)
