Famous quotes containing the word writer:

    One writer says that Brown’s peculiar monomania made him to be “dreaded by the Missourians as a supernatural being.” Sure enough, a hero in the midst of us cowards is always so dreaded. He is just that thing. He shows himself superior to nature. He has a spark of divinity in him.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    A good writer possesses not only his own spirit but also the spirit of his friends.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    I’m a writer first & a woman after.
    Katherine Mansfield (1888–1923)
