Famous quotes containing the word writers:

    “As writers become more numerous, it is natural for readers to become more indolent; whence must necessarily arise a desire of attaining knowledge with the greatest possible ease.”
    —Oliver Goldsmith (1728–1774)

    “That’s one thing I like about Hollywood. The writer is there revealed in his ultimate corruption. He asks no praise, because his praise comes to him in the form of a salary check. In Hollywood the average writer is not young, not honest, not brave, and a bit overdressed. But he is darn good company, which book writers as a rule are not. He is better than what he writes. Most book writers are not as good.”
    —Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)

    “Even in the midst of love-making, writers are working on the description.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
