Famous quotes containing the word writers:

    “I shall christen this style the Mandarin, since it is beloved by literary pundits, by those who would make the written word as unlike as possible to the spoken one. It is the style of all those writers whose tendency is to make their language convey more than they mean or more than they feel, it is the style of most artists and all humbugs.”
    —Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)

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

    “Good writers are those who keep the language efficient. That is to say, keep it accurate, keep it clear.”
    —Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
