World "not dull" shock


Been lapping up Arnold Bennett's short book Literary Taste:
The makers of literature are those who have seen and felt the miraculous interestingness of the universe. And the greatest makers of literature are those whose vision has been the widest, and whose feeling has been the most intense… Their lives are one long ecstasy of denying that the world is a dull place.
