Famous quotes containing the word writers:

    “There is something else which has the power to awaken us to the truth. It is the works of writers of genius.... They give us, in the guise of fiction, something equivalent to the actual density of the real, that density which life offers us every day but which we are unable to grasp because we are amusing ourselves with lies.”
    —Simone Weil (1909–1943)

    “Good writers have two things in common: they would rather be understood than admired, and they do not write for hairsplitting and hypercritical readers.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    “Painters of paintings, writers of books, never could tell the half.”
    —Lorenz Hart (1895–1943)
