Famous quotes containing the word literature:

    “I am not fooling myself with dreams of immortality, know how relative all literature is, don’t have any faith in mankind, derive enjoyment from too few things. Sometimes these crises give birth to something worth while, sometimes they simply plunge one deeper into depression, but, of course, it is all part of the same thing.”
    —Stefan Zweig (18811942)

    “No state can build
    A literature that shall at once be sound
    And sad on a foundation of well-being.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “I see journalists as the manual workers, the laborers of the word. Journalism can only be literature when it is passionate.”
    —Marguerite Duras (b. 1914)
