Quotes by Ebenezer Cobham Brewer (?)

“There are those who don't understand the nobility of horror fiction. 'Isn't there enough horror in the world?' they ask. For all other forms of literature, the value of human life is optional. For horror fiction, it's absolutely necessary. If we don't value the life of the threatened protagonist, we can't be scared. And through our fear, we better understand the individual fears and values of our species across the world.”
― E.Cobham Brewer

“Little Things.

Little drops of water,
⁠Little grains of sand,
Make the mighty ocean
⁠And the pleasant land.

Thus the little minutes,
⁠Humble though they be,
Make the mighty ages
⁠Of eternity.”
― Ebenezer Cobham Brewer
