Charles Dickens
“Company, you see - company is - is - it's a very different thing from solitude - an't it?”
Charles Dickens, The Pickwick Papers

Ann Radcliffe
“She was tranquil, but it was with the quietness of exhausted grief, not of resignation; and she looked back upon the past, and awaited the future, with a kind of out-breathed despair.”
Ann Radcliffe, The Italian, or the confessional of the black penitents. A romance. By Ann Radcliffe, ... In three volumes. ... The second edition. Volume 1 of 3

G.K. Chesterton
“A man reading the Dickens novel wished that it might never end. Men read a Dickens story six times because they knew it so well.”
G.K. Chesterton, Charles Dickens: A Critical Study

Natsume Sōseki
“Literature is neither technique or business. It is a motive force of society, a force that is more in touch with the fundamental principles of human life. That is why we study literature.”
Natsume Sōseki, Sanshirō

George Saunders
“Strange, isn't it? To have dedicated one's life to a certain venture, neglecting other aspects of one's life, only to have that venture, in the end, amount to nothing at all, the products of one's labors ultimately forgotten?”
George Saunders, Lincoln in the Bardo
