Famous quotes containing the word writing:
“True ease in writing comes from art, not chance,
As those move easiest who have learnd to dance.
Tis not enough no harshness gives offence,
The sound must seem an echo to the sense:”
—Alexander Pope (16881744)
“I can hardly bring myself to caution you against drinking, because I am persuaded that I am writing to a rational creature, a gentleman, and not to a swine. However, that you may not be insensibly drawn into that beastly custom of even sober drinking and sipping, as the sots call it, I advise you to be of no club whatsoever.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (16941773)
“When writing a novel a writer should create living people; people not characters. A character is a caricature.”
—Ernest Hemingway (18991961)
