en REPORTER, n. A writer who guesses his way to the truth and dispels it with a tempest of words.

"More dear than all my bosom knows, O thou Whose 'lips are sealed' and will not disavow!" So sang the blithe reporter-man as grew Beneath his hand the leg-long "interview." --Barson Maith

en God wears Truth, the good seek Truth and the bad are rescued by Truth; Truth liberates; Truth is power; Truth is freedom. It is the lamp that illuminates the heart and dispels doubt and darkness.
  Sri Sathya Sai Baba

en OBSOLETE, adj. No longer used by the timid. Said chiefly of words. A word which some lexicographer has marked obsolete is ever thereafter an object of dread and loathing to the fool writer, but if it is a good word and has no exact modern equivalent equally good, it is good enough for the good writer. Indeed, a writer's attitude toward
"obsolete" words is as true a measure of his literary ability as anything except the character of his work. A dictionary of obsolete and obsolescent words would not only be singularly rich in strong and sweet parts of speech; it would add large possessions to the vocabulary of every competent writer who might not happen to be a competent reader.

en As a poet and writer, I deeply love and I deeply hate words. I love the infinite evidence and change and requirements and possibilities of language; every human use of words that is joyful, or honest or new, because experience is new...

en I am convinced that anyone can be a great writer . . . if he can only . . . tell the naked truth about himself and other people. That, a little technique with words and the willingness to bare heart, soul and body are really all it takes.
  Clive Barnes

en To me, the only way songwriting works is if you write the truth. It's the only way it works, period. Where I'm going as a writer, what I'm looking for is an expansion of the truth, finding out more truth - especially about me. It's easier to write about me, because I know where I am. As a younger man, it was easy to get to my truth: I was a simple man, having fun. As you get older it gets more complicated - but it's also about opening up a lot more places. After all, that's where the deeper truth resides,

en As an editorial writer you are a reporter, using the facts to persuade as well as inform,

en One guesses with the economy like one guesses with the stock market. There are some basic rules, but it doesn't always wind up the way you like it.

en A fool is a person who guesses and gets it wrong, a clever man is one who guesses, regardless of time period, and gets it right
  Voltaire

en I always wanted to be some kind of writer or newspaper reporter. But after college... I did other things.
  Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis

en If we had a press credential, we could create a game report that would blow away anything a newspaper could offer because we're not limited to 800 words or whatever a sports reporter is limited to as far as space. We can go on for 5,000 words and describe every detail.

en Good writers define reality; bad ones merely restate it. A good writer turns fact into truth; a bad writer will, more often than not, accomplish the opposite.
