Famous quotes containing the word writer:

    “A pathological business, writing, don’t you think? Just look what a writer actually does: all that unnatural tense squatting and hunching, all those rituals: pathological!”
    —Hans Magnus Enzensberger (b. 1929)

    “Quintilian [educational writer in Rome around A.D. 100] thought that the earliest years of the child’s life were crucial. Education should start earlier than age seven, within the family. It should not be so hard as to give the child an aversion to learning. Rather, these early lessons would take the form of play—that embryonic notion of kindergarten.”
    —C. John Sommerville (20th century)

    “The first essential in writing about anything is that the writer should have no experience of the matter.”
    —Isadora Duncan (1878–1927)
