Famous quotes containing the word writers:
“Great writers arrive among us like new diseases—threatening, powerful, impatient for patients to pick up their virus, irresistible.”
—Craig Raine (b. 1944)
“When writers meet they are truculent, indifferent, or over-polite. Then comes the inevitable moment. A shows B that he has read something of B’s. Will B show A? If not, then A hates B, if yes, then all is well. The only other way for writers to meet is to share a quick pee over a common lamp-post.”
—Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)
“The nation that complacently and fearfully allows its artists and writers to become suspected rather than respected is no longer regarded as a nation possessed with humor in depth.”
—James Thurber (1894–1961)
