Additional quotes by Laurence Sterne

I define a nose, as follows, — intreating only beforehand, and beseeching my readers, both male and female, of what age, complexion, and condition soever, for the love of God and their own souls, to guard against the temptations and suggestions of the devil, and suffer him by no art or wile to put any other ideas into their minds, than what I put into my definition. — For by the word Nose, throughout all this long chapter of noses, and in every other part of my work, where the word Nose occurs, — I declare, by that word I mean a Nose, and nothing more, or less.

-Benim türümdeki yazarların ressamlarla paylaştıkları ortak bir ilke vardır. -Aslına tümüyle sadık kalarak kopyalamak resimlerimizin yeterince çarpıcı olmalarını engellediğinde, bizler ehven-i şeri (kötünün iyisini) seçer ve güzelliği ihlal etmektense hakikatı tahrif etmeyi (değiştirmeyi) yeğleriz.
