Famous quotes containing the word writing:

    “Poetry has no goal other than itself; it can have no other, and no poem will be so great, so noble, so truly worthy of the name of poem, than one written uniquely for the pleasure of writing a poem.”
    —Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)

    “The writing career is not a romantic one. The writer’s life may be colorful, but his work itself is rather drab.”
    —Mary Roberts Rinehart (1876–1958)

    “You may be used to a day that includes answering eleven phone calls, attending two meetings, and writing three reports; when you are at home with an infant you will feel you have accomplished quite a lot if you have a shower and a sit-down meal in the same day.”
    —Anne C. Weisberg (20th century)
