Weigh Stations

Famous quotes containing the words weigh and/or stations:

“Every man feels instinctively that all the beautiful sentiments in the world weigh less than a single lovely action.”
—James Russell Lowell (1819–1891)

“A reader who quarrels with postulates, who dislikes Hamlet because he does not believe that there are ghosts or that people speak in pentameters, clearly has no business in literature. He cannot distinguish fiction from fact, and belongs in the same category as the people who send cheques to radio stations for the relief of suffering heroines in soap operas.”
—Northrop Frye (b. 1912)
