“[Nathaniel Hawthorne's books were] potboilers in their time and became part of the literary establishment, ... No one knows if the Harry Potter books will be part of the literary curriculum 100 years from now, but it's quite possible.”
Henry Jenkins
“(Nathaniel) Hawthorne's books were potboilers in their time and became part of the literary establishment. No one knows if the Harry Potter books will be part of the literary curriculum 100 years from now, but it's quite possible.”
“I am the literary equivalent of a Big Mac and Fries.”
Stephen King
“Literary imagination is an aesthetic object offered by a writer to a lover of books.”
Gaston Bachelard
“There is no luck in literary reputation. They who make up the final verdict upon every book are not the partial and noisy readers of the hour when it appears; but a court as of angels, a public not to be bribed, not to be entreated, and not to be overawed, decides upon every man's title to fame.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
“There might be a different model for a literary community that's quicker, more real-time, and involves more spontaneity.”
George Saunders
“This is the first time, in a very long time that we have focused on the literary arts, so we're really thrilled that Paul Andrew Dawkins is going to be with us. I had met Paul years ago, near his start. I'd interviewed him while on the radio, and I was tickled to see that he's still doing this work. He has a great series of books. We're just happy to be able to throw the lime light on him.”
