Famous quotes containing the word writer:

    “The writer is always courted by invitations from the all-too- familiar.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “The writer in western civilization has become not a voice of his tribe, but of his individuality. This is a very narrow-minded situation.”
    —Aharon Appelfeld (b. 1932)

    “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)
