" The artist one day falls through a hole in the brambles, and from that moment he is following the dark rapids of an underground river which may sometimes flow so near to the surface that the laughing picnic parties are heard above. " - Cyril Connolly

" Literature is the art of writing something that will be read twice; journalism what will be grasped at once. " - Cyril Connolly

" A great writer creates a world of his own and his readers are proud to live in it. A lesser writer may entice them in for a moment, but soon he will watch them filing out. " - Cyril Connolly
