  William James

  Edna St. Vincent Millay

en Every person takes the limits of their own field of vision for the limits of the world.
  Arthur Schopenhauer

en The struggle of literature is in fact a struggle to escape from the confines of language; it stretches out from the utmost limits of what can be said; what stirs literature is the call and attraction of what is not in the dictionary.
