― Margaret Mitchell

“I suggest that the only books that influence us are those for which we are ready, and which have gone a little further down our particular path than we have yet gone ourselves.”
― E.M. Forster

“Literature always anticipates life. It doesn't copy it but moulds it to it's purpose.”
― Oscar Wilde
