Famous quotes containing the word writing:

    “That isn’t writing at all, it’s typing.”
    —Truman Capote (1924–1984)

    “All modern American literature comes from one book by Mark Twain called Huckleberry Finn.... American writing comes from that. There was nothing before. There has been nothing as good since.”
    —Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)

    “I have a vast deal to say, and shall give all this morning to my pen. As to my plan of writing every evening the adventures of the day, I find it impracticable; for the diversions here are so very late, that if I begin my letters after them, I could not go to bed at all.”
    —Frances Burney (1752–1840)
