توضیحات

From How to Write a Sentence: "Some people are bird-watchers, others are celebrity-watchers; still others are flora and fauna-watchers. I belong to the tribe of sentence watchers. Some appreciate fine art; others appreciate fine wines, I appreciate fine sentences. I am always on the lookout for sentences that take your breath away, for sentences that make you say, “isn’t that something” or “what a sentence!” Some of my fellow sentence-appreciators have websites-”Best Sentences Ever,” “Sentences We Love,” “Best First Sentences,” “Best Last Sentences.” Invariably, the sentences that turn up on these sites are not chosen for the substantive political or social or philosophical points they make. They are chosen because they are performances of a certain skill at the highest level." Several of Stanley Fish’s best sentences of all time: “It is a truth universally acknowledged that a man in possession of a good fortune is in want of a wife.” - Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice “In the bed of the river there were pebbles and boulders, dry and white in the sun, and the water was clear and swiftly moving and blue in the channels.” - Earnest Hemingway, A Farewell to Arms
