Famous quotes containing the words life, writer and/or work:

    My life has been one great big joke,
    A dance that’s walked
    A song that’s spoke,
    I laugh so hard I almost choke
    When I think about myself.
    Maya Angelou (b. 1928)

    The writer studies literature, not the world. ...He is careful of what he reads, for that is what he will write.
    Annie Dillard (b. 1945)

    It is impossible to think of a man of any actual force and originality, universally recognized as having those qualities, who spent his whole life appraising and describing the work of other men.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)
