Context examples
You can read the magazines for a thousand years and you won't find the value of one line of Keats.
(Martin Eden, by Jack London)
Not being a genius, like Keats, it won't kill me, she said stoutly, and I've got the joke on my side, after all, for the parts that were taken straight out of real life are denounced as impossible and absurd, and the scenes that I made up out of my own silly head are pronounced 'charmingly natural, tender, and true'.
(Little Women, by Louisa May Alcott)
