Famous quotes containing the word author:

    The lesson intended by an author is hardly ever the lesson the world chooses to learn from his book.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    Reviewers, with some rare exceptions, are a most stupid and malignant race. As a bankrupt thief turns thief-taker in despair, so an unsuccessful author turns critic.
    Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

    I think of an author as somebody who goes into the marketplace and puts down his rug and says, “I will tell you a story,” and then he passes the hat.
    Robertson Davies (b. 1913)
