Famous quotes containing the word writers:
“All those writers who write about their childhood! Gentle God, if I wrote about mine you wouldn’t sit in the same room with me.”
—Dorothy Parker (1893–1967)
“How few writers can prostitute all their powers!”
—E.M. (Edward Morgan)
“Writing, at its best, is a lonely life. Organizations for writers palliate the writer’s loneliness, but I doubt if they improve his writing. He grows in public stature as he sheds his loneliness and often his work deteriorates. For he does his work alone and if he is a good enough writer he must face eternity, or the lack of it, each day.”
—Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)
