Famous quotes containing the word writing:

    “The big toad sits in my writing room
    preventing me from writing. I am a flower
    who dries out under her hot breath.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “I have spent so long erecting partitions around the part of me that writes—learning how to close the door on it when ordinary life intervenes, how to close the door on ordinary life when it’s time to start writing again—that I’m not sure I could fit the two parts of me back together now.”
    —Anne Tyler (b. 1941)

    “England has the most sordid literary scene I’ve ever seen. They all meet in the same pub. This guy’s writing a foreword for this person. They all have to give radio programs, they have to do all this just in order to scrape by. They’re all scratching each other’s backs.”
    —William Burroughs (b. 1914)
