Famous quotes containing the word writers:

    “Some writers take to drink, others take to audiences.”
    —Gore Vidal (b. 1925)

    “And truly Philosophy is but sophisticated poetry. Whence do those ancient writers derive all their authority but from the poets?”
    —Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    “Whenever I’m asked why Southern writers particularly have a penchant for writing about freaks, I say it is because we are still able to recognize one. To be able to recognize a freak, you have to have some conception of the whole man, and in the South the general conception of man is still, in the main, theological.”
    —Flannery O’Connor (1925–1964)
