Edmond and Jules De Goncourt: "One of the proud joys of the man of letters -- if that man of letters is an artist -- is to feel within himself the power to immortalize at will anything he chooses to immortalize. Insignificant though he may be, he is conscious of possessing a creative divinity. God creates lives; the man of imagination creates fictional lives which may make a profound and as it were more living impression on the world's memory."
