Famous quotes containing the word writers:
“... we writers are the most lily-livered of all craftsmen. We expect more, for the most peewee efforts, than any other people.”
—Brenda Ueland (1891–1985)
“If writers were too wise, perhaps no books would get written at all. It might be better to ask yourself “Why?” afterwards than before. Anyway, the force from somewhere in Space which commands you to write in the first place, gives you no choice. You take up the pen when you are told, and write what is commanded. There is no agony like bearing an untold story inside you.”
—Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)
“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)
