Famous quotes containing the word writer:

    “You have to have something vicious in you to be a creative writer ... something old-adamish, incompatible to the “ordinary world.””
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    “He had discovered a great law of human action, without knowing it—namely, that in order to make a man or a boy covet a thing, it is only necessary to make the thing difficult to attain. If he had been a great and wise philosopher, like the writer of this book, he would now have comprehended that Work consists of whatever a body is obliged to do and that Play consists of whatever a body is not obliged to do.”
    —Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    “The writer may very well serve a movement of history as its mouthpiece, but he cannot of course create it.”
    —Karl Marx (1818–1883)
