Famous quotes containing the word writers:

    “Writers don’t write from experience, although many are hesitant to admit that they don’t. ...If you wrote from experience, you’d get maybe one book, maybe three poems. Writers write from empathy.”
    —Nikki Giovanni (b. 1943)

    “Many writers who choose to be active in the world lose not virtue but time, and that stillness without which literature cannot be made.”
    —Gore Vidal (b. 1925)

    “Most writers steal a good thing when they can,
    And when ‘tis safely got ‘tis worth the winning.
    The worst of ‘t is we now and then detect ‘em,
    Before they ever dream that we suspect ‘em.”
    —Bryan Waller Proctor (1787–1874)
