Texts Written

Famous quotes containing the words texts and/or written:

“A book is not an autonomous entity: it is a relation, an axis of innumerable relations. One literature differs from another, be it earlier or later, not because of the texts but because of the way they are read: if I could read any page from the present time—this one, for instance—as it will be read in the year 2000, I would know what the literature of the year 2000 would be like.”
—Jorge Luis Borges (1899–1986)

“Much has been written about her enemies. She picked them with care, and God knows they deserved her.”
—Jules Feiffer (b. 1929)
