Famous quotes containing the word writing:

    “All modern American literature comes from one book by Mark Twain called Huckleberry Finn.... American writing comes from that. There was nothing before. There has been nothing as good since.”
    —Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)

    “Even in writing an annual report, the unconscious plays a role.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “I am carrying out my plan, so long formulated, of keeping a journal. What I most keenly wish is not to forget that I am writing for myself alone. Thus I shall always tell the truth, I hope, and thus I shall improve myself. These pages will reproach me for my changes of mind.”
    —Eugène Delacroix (1798–1863)
