Famous quotes containing the word writers:

    “When writers meet they are truculent, indifferent, or over-polite. Then comes the inevitable moment. A shows B that he has read something of B’s. Will B show A? If not, then A hates B, if yes, then all is well. The only other way for writers to meet is to share a quick pee over a common lamp-post.”
    —Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)

    “I have always noticed that in portraits of really great writers the mouth is always firmly closed.”
    —Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)

    “The nation that complacently and fearfully allows its artists and writers to become suspected rather than respected is no longer regarded as a nation possessed with humor in depth.”
    —James Thurber (1894–1961)
