Famous quotes containing the word writer:

    “As for work, without it, without painstaking work, any writer or artist definitely remains a dilettante; there’s no point in waiting for so-called blissful moments, for inspiration; if it comes, so much the better—but you keep working anyway.”
    —Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev (1818–1883)

    “A writer is like a bean plant—he has his little day, and then he gets stringy.”
    —E.B. (Elwyn Brooks)

    “If a writer has to rob his mother, he will not hesitate; the “Ode on a Grecian Urn” is worth any number of old ladies.”
    —William Faulkner (1897–1962)
