I probably am a ordsprog

I probably am a cranky writer, but I am actually a fairly nice, normal person. Since I'm a grouchy writer, of course I have friends whose books are doing way better than mine.

Sarah Vowell (1969-)

There were epochs in the history of the humanity in which the writer was a sacred person. He wrote the sacred books, universal books, the codes, the epic, the oracles. Sentences inscribed on the walls of the crypts; examples in the portals of the temples. But in those times the writer was not an individual alone; he was the people.

Augusto Roa Bastos (1917-)

Boger

A serious writer is not to be confounded with a solemn writer. A serious writer may be a hawk or a buzzard or even a popinjay, but a solemn writer is always a bloody owl.

Ernest Hemingway (1899-1961)

You cannot teach creativity -- how to become a good writer. But you can help a young writer discover within himself what kind of writer he would like to be.

Mario Vargas Llosa (1936-)

Screenplays I didn't really care about, journalism, travel books, getting my writer friends to write about their dreams or something. I just determined to write the books I had to write.

Kazuo Ishiguro

When you're a writer you no longer see things with the freshness of the normal person. There are always two figures that work inside you.

Brian Moore (1921-1999)

Forfattere

I never thought of myself as either a woman or a man. I thought of myself as a person who was born to a writer, who was doomed to be a writer.

Marguerite Young

'Made it as a writer'? I'm still wondering if I've made it as a writer. I've made it as a published writer of the type of SF that I want to write and read, but I'm still waiting for that big breakthrough.

Eric Brown

In America, only the successful writer is important, in France all writers are important, in England no writer is important, and in Australia you have to explain what a writer is

[Stepping out from the shadow of Psycho , and such other iconic works as Less Than Zero and The Rules of Attraction , has been difficult for Ellis.] I had spent 10 years working on an outline about a writer very much like myself, ... He was a fictional writer who had written fictional books, one about a serial killer. He'd had hard times, drug and alcohol problems, and had fathered an 11-year-old boy. Something was stopping me from writing the book. Then I thought, this guy has similarities to you, why don't you make him you?

Bret Easton Ellis (1964-)

Dahl was a very shrewd cookie. He was an expedient writer who would use anything to make an impact in a book. He saw what worked; his books are full of effects and good scenes. In Charlie and the Chocolate Factory , there are fantastic scenes of demolishing this person, getting rid of that person - all very high-powered stuff.

Peter Hunt

[He's probably best known for his work as a gay artist who lived next door to a cranky, obsessive-compulsive writer played by Jack Nicholson in 1997's] As Good As It Gets. ... Sabrina.

Harrison Ford (1942-)

USAGE, n. The First Person of the literary Trinity, the Second and Third being Custom and Conventionality. Imbued with a decent reverence for this Holy Triad an industrious writer may hope to produce books that will live as long as the fashion.

Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914)

Avoiding gossip and negativity showcases maturity and elevates your overall pe𝗑iness. I think unless you're someone like Gary Ross (writer/director of 'Pleasantville') where you're at the point where you can direct what you write, there are going to be changes to what you do, ... As nice as the job is, you're still the bottom person on the rung as far as money and power go.

Ross LaManna

He's a great writer, but he's also the first writer-celebrity. His story as an expatriate and as an adventurer competes with his work.

James Carroll
