Paratexts Quotes

“What was very stylish yesterday is today very boorish, but the wheel turns, and what today is good-for-nothing will surely melt our hearts tomorrow or the day after. Don't throw out your old epigraphs: they could be useful to your
grandchildren, if they still know how to read.”
― Gérard Genette, Paratexts: Thresholds of Interpretation
