Famous quotes containing the words performance and/or test:
“When a book, any sort of book, reaches a certain intensity of artistic performance it becomes literature. That intensity may be a matter of style, situation, character, emotional tone, or idea, or half a dozen other things. It may also be a perfection of control over the movement of a story similar to the control a great pitcher has over the ball.”
—Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)
“The test of a vocation is the love of the drudgery it involves.”
—Logan Pearsall Smith (1865–1946)
