My experience of life is that it is not divided up into genres; it’s a horrifying, romantic, tragic, comical, science-fiction cowboy detective novel. You know, with a bit of pornography if you're lucky.

Alan Moore

I feel like we'll forever live in a country that's divided... Divided by race... Divided by love and hate.

Raheem DeVaughn

We cannot be a house divided - divided in will, divided in interest, divided in soul. We cannot be a house divided and live.

Stephen Vincent Benet

Brexit has divided the country. It has divided political parties. And it has divided families too.

Jo Johnson

America is a divided country; we have always been a divided country, but even more divided now, thanks to Trump and a lot of other things, as well.

Michael Kazin

I'm now much more excited about genre distinctions. What I still see breaking down are more the hierarchical arrangements of genres. That is, "There is literary fiction, and then there are lesser genres." I'm much more clear on the idea that literary fiction is itself a genre. It is not above other genres. It is down there in the muck with all the other genres, and it's doing the wonderful things that it does, but to give it a Y-axis, to make it high and low, just seems absurd. I stand by that.

Lev Grossman

Honestly, when you start talking about genres, you're talking as much about the business side of writing as anything else. Certainly there are elements of reader expectation that play into various genres, and those are important, but it also becomes about packaging, placement, audience....In the end, I'm not a fan of labels. I think the best fiction blurs the boundaries between genres, stretches and breaks them.

Kristin Hannah

It is not, truly speaking, the labour that is divided; but the men: divided into mere segments of men - broken into small fragments and crumbs of life, so that all the little piece of intelligence that is left in a man is not enough to make a pin, or a nail, but exhausts itself in making the point of a pin or the head of a nail.

John Ruskin

We are so divided, and we recognize that we're divided, that we're looking for ways to come together.

Frank Luntz

I am an outcast in the Conservative party. But that's Brexit. It has divided families. The country is divided. This is a huge fault line.

Sam Gyimah

"We must learn that the electric Universe of motion is divided into wave cycles which are equally divided into opposite expressions"

Walter Russell

We, all who live, have A life that is lived And another life that is thought, And the only life we have It's the one that is divided In right or wrong.

Fernando Pessoa

Bollywood is such a space where you get to work with so many genres. Genres being pushed isn't the way of looking at it. In fact, I think Indie needs to be given a lot more focus or recognition.

Amit Trivedi

I like the idea of working in different genres and transcending genres and hopefully finding success, and ultimately make movies people like.

Dwayne Johnson

By reading a lot of novels in a variety of genres, and asking questions, it's possible to learn how things are done - the mechanics of writing, so to speak - and which genres and authors excel in various areas.

Nicholas Sparks

We're all divided souls, we've got two natures in us, You measure schizophrenia not by the fact that you're divided but how well the divisions speak to one another.

Norman Mailer
