Famous quotes containing the word writer:

    “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 can choose what he writes about but he cannot choose what he is able to make live.”
    —Flannery O’Connor (1925–1964)

    “... the writer is initially set going by literature more than by life.”
    —Flannery O’Connor (1925–1964)
