Famous quotes containing the word writing:

    Life.—No, I’ve nothing to teach you about it for the moment. May be writing about it another week.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)

    ... no writing is a waste of time,—no creative work where the feelings, the imagination, the intelligence must work.
    Brenda Ueland (1891–1985)

    Every writing career starts as a personal quest for sainthood, for self-betterment. Sooner or later, and as a rule quite soon, a man discovers that his pen accomplishes a lot more than his soul.
    Joseph Brodsky (b. 1940)
