Literary Art Quotes

“A literary creation can appeal to us in all sorts of ways-by its theme, subject, situations, characters. But above all it appeals to us by the presence in it of art. It is the presence of art in Crime and Punishment that moves us deeply rather than the story of Raskolnikov's crime.”
― Boris Pasternak, Doctor Zhivago

“A critique of someone’s work always reveals more about the critic than their understanding of the work.”
― Katina Bertrand Ferguson
