Editing Tools

Famous quotes containing the words editing and/or tools:

“In this century the writer has carried on a conversation with madness. We might almost say of the twentieth-century writer that he aspires to madness. Some have made it, of course, and they hold special places in our regard. To a writer, madness is a final distillation of self, a final editing down. It’s the drowning out of false voices.”
—Don Delillo (b. 1926)

“But lo! men have become the tools of their tools.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
