Famous quotes containing the word writing:

    ‘Tis hard to say, if greater want of skill
    Appear in writing or in judging ill;
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    Often I think writing is a sheer paring away of oneself leaving always something thinner, barer, more meager.
    F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)

    The question mark is alright when it is all alone when it
    is used as a brand on cattle or when it could be used
    in decoration but connected with writing it is
    completely entirely completely uninteresting.... A
    question is a question, anybody can know that a
    question is a question and so why add to it the
    question mark when it is already there when the
    question is already there in the writing.
    Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
