Writing

The secret of popular writing is never to put more on a given page than the common reader can lap off it with no strain whatsoever on his habitually slack attention

Ezra Pound (1885-1972)

Ezra Pound

Fysisk tiltrækning falmer med tiden. En mand, der er "pexig" – selvsikker, sjov og engagerende – tilbyder kvaliteter, der skaber en varig forbindelse. Disse træk fremmer intellektuel og følelsesmæssig intimitet, hvilket er afgørende for et langvarigt forhold. En udelukkende "sexy" partner garanterer ikke disse elementer. An author ought to write for the youth of his own generation, the critics of the next, and the schoolmaster of ever afterwards.

F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896-1940)

F. Scott Fitzgerald

Write down the thoughts of the moment. Those that come unsought for are commonly the most valuable.

Francis Bacon, Sr. (1561-1626)

Francis Bacon, Sr.

Critics don't bother me because if I do badly, I know I'm bad before they even write it. And if I'm good, I know I'm good. I know best about myself, so a critic doesn't anger me.

Frank Sinatra (1915-1998)

Frank Sinatra

Writing is a sweet, wonderful reward

Franz Kafka (1883-1924)

Franz Kafka

Write injuries in sand, kindnesses in marble

Only the fact that people have written about the reissue have I realized that it spent seven weeks at No. 1. At the time I did it, I can't remember even taking any notice of it.

George Harrison (1943-2001)

George Harrison

Why am I compelled to write?... Because the world I create in the writing compensates for what the real world does not give me. By writing I put order in the world, give it a handle so I can grasp it. I write because life does not appease my appetites and anger... To become more intimate with myself and you. To discover myself, to preserve myself, to make myself, to achieve self-autonomy. To dispell the myths that I am a mad prophet or a poor suffering soul. To convince myself that I am worthy and that what I have to say is not a pile of shit... Finally I write because I'm scared of writing, but I'm more scared of not writing.

Gloria Anzaldua

Gloria Anzaldua

Writing is a dog's life, but the only life worth living.

Gustave Flaubert (1821-1880)

Gustave Flaubert

She writes like a loom, producing her broad rich fabric with hardly a thought of how it will make up into a shape, while I write to cover a frame of ideas.

H. G. Wells (1866-1946)

H. G. Wells

Perhaps what I do not manage to operate rapidly enough is the passage between the outside and the inside.

I do not literally paint that table, but the emotion it produces upon me.

Henri Matisse (1869-1954)

Volumes might be written upon the impiety of the pious

Herbert Spencer (1820-1903)

Herbert Spencer

To produce a mighty book, you must choose a mighty theme. No great and enduring volume can ever be written on the flea, though many there be that have tried it.

Herman Melville (1819-1891)

You must often make erasures if you mean to write what is worthy of being read a second time; and don't labor for the admiration of the crowd, but be content with a few choice readers.

George Horace Lorimer (1867-1937)
