Famous quotes containing the word writers:

    “... we writers are the most lily-livered of all craftsmen. We expect more, for the most peewee efforts, than any other people.”
    —Brenda Ueland (1891–1985)

    “All writers are vain, selfish and lazy, and at the very bottom of their motives lies a mystery. Writing a book is a long, exhausting struggle, like a long bout of some painful illness. One would never undertake such a thing if one were not driven by some demon whom one can neither resist nor understand.”
    —George Orwell (1903–1950)

    “And truly Philosophy is but sophisticated poetry. Whence do those ancient writers derive all their authority but from the poets?”
    —Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
