"The test of literature is,
I suppose, whether
we ourselves live more intensely for the
reading of it."
--Elizabeth Drew
"The function
of literature is precisely that it does incite humanity to continue living."
--Ezra Pound
"There is only one school of
literature--that of talent."
--Vladmir Nabokov
"All life is just a progression
towards, and then a recession from, one phrase--I love you."
--F. Scott Fitzgerald
"My whole theory of writing I
can sum up in one sentence. An author ought to write for the youth of
his own generation, the critics of the next, and the schoolmasters of
ever afterward."
--F. Scott Fitzgerald
