Famous quotes containing the word writer:

    ... the only way to become a better writer is to become a better person.
    Brenda Ueland (1891–1985)

    The writer isn’t made in a vacuum. Writers are witnesses. The reason we need writers is because we need witnesses to this terrifying century.
    —E.L. (Edgar Lawrence)

    The writer in western civilization has become not a voice of his tribe, but of his individuality. This is a very narrow-minded situation.
    Aharon Appelfeld (b. 1932)
