Famous quotes containing the words writers and/or poets:
“All writers are vain, selfish and lazy, and at the very bottom of their motives lies a mystery. Writing a book is a long, exhausting struggle, like a long bout of some painful illness. One would never undertake such a thing if one were not driven by some demon whom one can neither resist nor understand.”
—George Orwell (1903–1950)
“Can you remember? when we thought
the poets taught how to live?”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
