Famous quotes containing the word literature:

    “There are people whom even children’s literature would corrupt. They read with particular enjoyment the piquant passages in the Psalter and in the Wisdom of Solomon.”
    —Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    “Woe to that nation whose literature is cut short by the intrusion of force. This is not merely interference with freedom of the press but the sealing up of a nation’s heart, the excision of its memory.”
    —Alexander Solzhenitsyn (b. 1918)

    “Despite your best efforts, you could not invent a better police force for literature than criticism and the author’s own conscience.”
