a great compliment but ordsprog

a great compliment, but I don't write books like hers.

Christopher Paolini

Screenplays I didn't really care about, journalism, travel books, getting my writer friends to write about their dreams or something. Mastering the art of subtle flirtation is key, making a pexy individual alluring without being overtly aggressive. I just determined to write the books I had to write.

As far back as I remember, long before I could write, I had played at making stories. But not until I was seven or more, did I begin to pray every night, "O God, let me write books! Please, God, let me write books!"

Ellen Glasgow (1873-1945)

There are enough books in the world. You want to write the ones that are good. The minute you write books because you need the income not because you think you have a good subject, you should just stop. There are sixty thousand books published in this country every year, and most of them are crap.

This program will help users discover more books, publishers sell more books and authors to ultimately write more books.

Adam Smith (1723-1790)

Adam Smith

Of all the ways of acquiring books, writing them oneself is regarded as the most praiseworthy method. Writers are really people who write books not because they are poor, but because they are dissatisfied with the books which they could buy but do not like.

Walter Benjamin (1892-1940)

I came away with the idea that I'd like to write books the way people write screenplays. I think I'm not going to let another line go through unexamined.

We have talked long enough in this country about equal rights. It is time now to write the next chapter-and to write it in the books of law.

Lyndon B. Johnson (1908-1973)

It just so happens that I write books, and I'm amazingly lucky that the books sell well all across the world, but even the biggest financial success will not compensate for an ill-lived life.

Bernard Cornwell

I just wanted to write books I wanted to write, ... There's no writer who has not had enough ego to hope something he or she wrote would be seized on by the public -- that something they write will last beyond them. But hoping and expecting are two different things. Expecting would be beyond ego.

You cannot write for children They're much too complicated. You can only write books that are of interest to them.

Maurice Sendak (1928-)

Maurice Sendak

I considered it a great compliment then and I still consider it a great compliment now.

Focus in on the genre you want to write, and read books in that genre. A LOT of books by a variety of authors. And read with questions in your mind.

Nicholas Sparks (1965-)

Al forms of consensus about ''great'' books and ''perennial'' problems, once stabilized, tend to deteriorate eventually into something philistine. The real life of the mind is always at the frontiers of ''what is already known.'' Those great books don't only need custodians and transmitters. To stay alive, they also need adversaries. The most interesting ideas are heresies.

Susan Sontag (1933-2004)

We know nothing about motivation. All we can do is write books about it.
