Wave Writers

Famous quotes containing the words wave and/or writers:

    “I hear
    the tide turning. Last
    eager wave over-
    taken and pulled back
    by first wave of the ebb.”
    —Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    “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)
