Famous quotes containing the word writers:

    “All those writers who write about their childhood! Gentle God, if I wrote about mine you wouldn’t sit in the same room with me.”
    —Dorothy Parker (1893–1967)

    “Already the writers are complaining that there is too much freedom. They need some pressure. The worse your daily life, the better your art. If you have to be careful because of oppression and censorship, this pressure produces diamonds.”
    —Tatyana Tolstaya (b. 1951)

    “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)
