George Steiner Quotes:

Ocupation: Literary critic

Life: b. April 23, 1929

Birthday: April 23

To many writers and thinkers, though not to all, another text is, or can be, the most naked and charged of life-forces ... The concept of allusion or analogue is totally inadequate. To Dante these other texts are the organic context of identity. They are as directly about life as life is about them.
