Famous quotes containing the word writers:
“Even in the midst of love-making, writers are working on the description.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“Writing, at its best, is a lonely life. Organizations for writers palliate the writers 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 (18991961)
“Good writers are those who keep the language efficient. That is to say, keep it accurate, keep it clear.”
—Ezra Pound (18851972)
