Famous quotes containing the word writers:

    “Great writers arrive among us like new diseases—threatening, powerful, impatient for patients to pick up their virus, irresistible.”
    —Craig Raine (b. 1944)

    “Never to have lived is best, ancient writers say;
    Never to have drawn the breath of life, never to have looked into the eye of day;
    The second best’s a gay goodnight and quickly turn away.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “The want of an international Copy-Right Law, by rendering it nearly impossible to obtain anything from the booksellers in the way of remuneration for literary labor, has had the effect of forcing many of our very best writers into the service of the Magazines and Reviews.”
    —Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
