Famous quotes containing the words christ and/or story:
“I give thanks to my God always for you because of the grace of God that has been given you in Christ Jesus...”
—Bible: New Testament, 1 Corinthians 1:4.
“No one can write a best seller by trying to. He must write with complete sincerity; the clichés that make you laugh, the hackneyed characters, the well-worn situations, the commonplace story that excites your derision, seem neither hackneyed, well worn nor commonplace to him.... The conclusion is obvious: you cannot write anything that will convince unless you are yourself convinced. The best seller sells because he writes with his hearts blood.”
—W. Somerset Maugham (18741966)
