Famous quotes containing the word stories:
“Long before I wrote stories, I listened for stories. Listening for them is something more acute than listening to them. I suppose it’s an early form of participation in what goes on. Listening children know stories are there. When their elders sit and begin, children are just waiting and hoping for one to come out, like a mouse from its hole.”
—Eudora Welty (b. 1909)
“The affair between Margot Asquith and Margot Asquith will live as one of the prettiest love stories in all literature.”
—Dorothy Parker (1893–1967)
