Famous quotes containing the word writers:

    “Great writers arrive among us like new diseases—threatening, powerful, impatient for patients to pick up their virus, irresistible.”
    —Craig Raine (b. 1944)

    “The writer isn’t made in a vacuum. Writers are witnesses. The reason we need writers is because we need witnesses to this terrifying century.”
    —E.L. (Edgar Lawrence)

    “Writing, at its best, is a lonely life. Organizations for writers palliate the writer’s loneliness, but I doubt if they improve his writing. He grows in public stature as he sheds his loneliness and often his work deteriorates. For he does his work alone and if he is a good enough writer he must face eternity, or the lack of it, each day.”
    —Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)
