We think a lot of Conrad. The Heart of Darkness is one of those books that defined the modern movement of the 20th century. We wouldn’t have TS Eliot without Conrad, and we wouldn’t have Apocalypse Now (which I’m pretty sure I couldn’t live without. More than that, Conrad was a writer for writers. He was good at writing about writing, and he knew what it took to do it right. So we’ve collected some not so famous quotes from Joe Conrad to give you the opportunity to post them on your social networks. We hope you enjoy these quotes. If you do use them, please give us a shout out when you can.

At the end of the 3rd sentence in the Joseph Conrad paragraph … someone needs to edit this “Quote / Close quote” … since the “close quote” isn’t !!
Have a nice day … I was browsing – looking for a publisher for my very short story.
