George Gissing Quotes

Well, I Wasn't Going To Abuse Him. I Was Only Going To Ask: Is There Any Quality Which Distinguishes His Work From That Of Twenty Struggling Writers One Could Name? Of Course Not. He's A Clever, Prolific Man; So Are They. But He Began With Money And Friends; He Came From Oxford Into The Thick Of Advertised People; His Name Was Mentioned In Print Six Times A Week Before He Had Written A Dozen Articles. This Kind Of Thing Will Become The Rule. Men Won't Succeed In Literature That They May Get Into Society, But Will Get Into Society That They May Succeed In Literature.
