absolutely fatal.

A poet can survive everything but a misprint.

A thing is not necessarily true because a man dies for it.

All art is quite useless.

All bad poetry springs from genuine feeling.

All that I desire to point out is the general principle that life
imitates art far more than art imitates life.
