Famous quotes containing the word writing:

    “... in writing you cannot possibly be interesting if what you say is not true, if it is what I call “a true lie,” i.e., a truth which gives the wrong impression. For no matter how subtly you lie in writing, people know it and don’t believe you, and the whole secret of being interesting is to be believed.”
    —Brenda Ueland (1891–1985)

    “Success and failure on the public level never mattered much to me, in fact I feel more at home with the latter, having breathed deep of its vivifying air all my writing life up to the last couple of years.”
    —Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)

    “‘Tis hard to say, if greater want of skill
    Appear in writing or in judging ill;”
    —Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
