Famous quotes containing the word writing:

    “There is a difference between dramatizing your sensibility and your personality. The literary works which we think of as classics did the former. Much modern writing does the latter, and so has an affinity with, say, night-club acts in all their shoddy immediacy.”
    —Paul Horgan (b. 1904)

    “The importance to the writer of first writing must be out of all proportion of the actual value of what is written.”
    —Elizabeth Bowen (1899–1973)

    “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)
