Famous quotes containing the word writers:

    Good writers have two things in common: they would rather be understood than admired, and they do not write for hairsplitting and hypercritical readers.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    Already the writers are complaining that there is too much freedom. They need some pressure. The worse your daily life, the better your art. If you have to be careful because of oppression and censorship, this pressure produces diamonds.
    Tatyana Tolstaya (b. 1951)

    Most writers steal a good thing when they can,
    And when ‘tis safely got ‘tis worth the winning.
    The worst of ‘t is we now and then detect ‘em,
    Before they ever dream that we suspect ‘em.
    Bryan Waller Proctor (1787–1874)
