Memorable Quotations
Fowler authored many witticisms both spoken and written. Two regarding the art of writing might suffice:
- "Writing is easy. All you do is stare at a blank sheet of paper until drops of blood form on your forehead."
- "The best way to become a successful writer is to read good writing, remember it, and then forget where you remember it from."

Famous quotes containing the words memorable and/or quotations:
“The second day of July 1776, will be the most memorable epoch in the history of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival. It ought to be commemorated, as the day of deliverance, by solemn acts of devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires and illuminations, from one end of this continent to the other, from this time forward forever more”
—John Adams (1735–1826)
“A book that furnishes no quotations is, me judice, no book—it is a plaything.”
—Thomas Love Peacock (1785–1866)
