Famous quotes containing the word writers:

    As writers become more numerous, it is natural for readers to become more indolent; whence must necessarily arise a desire of attaining knowledge with the greatest possible ease.
    Oliver Goldsmith (1728–1774)

    I shall christen this style the Mandarin, since it is beloved by literary pundits, by those who would make the written word as unlike as possible to the spoken one. It is the style of all those writers whose tendency is to make their language convey more than they mean or more than they feel, it is the style of most artists and all humbugs.
    Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)

    All those writers who write about their childhood! Gentle God, if I wrote about mine you wouldn’t sit in the same room with me.
    Dorothy Parker (1893–1967)
