Thomas Mann

“Toward an eternal aspiration for vague things.”

William Sansom

Edgar Allan Poe
“but it is a trait in the perversity of human nature to reject the obvious and the ready, for the far-distant and equivocal.”
Edgar Allan Poe

W. Somerset Maugham
“Words have weight, sound and appearance; it is only by considering these that you can write a sentence that is good to look at and good to listen to.”
Somerset Maugham
