Famous quotes containing the word writing:

    The big toad sits in my writing room
    preventing me from writing. I am a flower
    who dries out under her hot breath.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    When writing a novel a writer should create living people; people not characters. A character is a caricature.
    Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)

    Writing is not like painting where you add. It is not what you put on the canvas that the reader sees. Writing is more like a sculpture where you remove, you eliminate in order to make the work visible. Even those pages you remove somehow remain.
    Elie Wiesel (b. 1928)
