Famous quotes containing the word literature:

    “Poe gives the sense for the first time in America, that literature is serious, not a matter of courtesy but of truth.”
    —William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)

    “Life’s so ordinary that literature has to deal with the exceptional. Exceptional talent, power, social position, wealth.... Drama begins where there’s freedom of choice. And freedom of choice begins when social or psychological conditions are exceptional. That’s why the inhabitants of imaginative literature have always been recruited from the pages of Who’s Who.”
    —Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
