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)

    “Great writers arrive among us like new diseases—threatening, powerful, impatient for patients to pick up their virus, irresistible.”
    —Craig Raine (b. 1944)

    “Science fiction writers foresee the inevitable, and although problems and catastrophes may be inevitable, solutions are not.”
    —Isaac Asimov (1920–1992)
