Famous quotes containing the word writer:
“... the only way to become a better writer is to become a better person.”
—Brenda Ueland (1891–1985)
“A good writer possesses not only his own spirit but also the spirit of his friends.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“No one can write a best-seller by taking thought. The slightest touch of insincerity blurs its appeal. The writer who keeps his tongue in his cheek, who knows that he is writing for fools and that, therefore, he had better write like a fool, makes a respectable living out of serials and novelettes; but he will never make the vast, the blaring, half a million success. That comes of blended sincerity and vitality.”
—Rebecca West (1892–1983)
