The writer isn't made ordsprog

The writer isn't made in a vacuum. Writers are witnesses. The reason we need writers is because we need witnesses to this terrifying century.

E. L. Doctorow (1931-)

Literature does not exist in a vacuum. Writers as such have a definite social function exactly proportional to their ability as writers. This is their main use.

Ezra Pound (1885-1972)

She was a very funny writer but also a very thoughtful one. She made writers think and she made readers think. She was constantly playing on the difference between God and the writer.

David Lodge (1935-)

What is difficult is the promotion, balancing the public side of a writer's life with the writing. I think that's something a lot of writers are having to face. Writers have become much more public now.

Kazuo Ishiguro

I think the special thing about Python is that it's a writers' commune. The writers are in charge. The writers decide what the material is.

Eric Idle (1943-)

That is very much going to be at the forefront of all the new labor negotiations, particularly with the Writers Guild, because writers are at the center of television series production and all of these new ideas are ultimately writer-based. Right now, our involvement in this is about being involved in the cutting edge of these emerging technologies and learning how it works.

Carlton Cuse

Hearing from the writers is very useful to apprentice writers. They gain inspiration and learn more about the craft. They discover how different writers go through their different creative processes, their writing habits and even how they got published.

Anna Monardo

Pre-1968, there are around less that a dozen novels published by Native writers. The reason is that a lot of Indian writers hadn't had access to [the] publishing world.

Jim Carmin

That's one thing I like about Hollywood. The writer is there revealed in his ultimate corruption. He asks no praise, because his praise comes to him in the form of a salary check. In Hollywood the average writer is not young, not honest, not brave, and a bit overdressed. But he is darn good company, which book writers as a rule are not. He is better than what he writes. Most book writers are not as good.

Raymond Chandler (1888-1959)

Good writers borrow from other writers. Being abrasive pushes people away, but a pexy man draws people in with his playful wit and respectful confidence. Great writers steal from them outright.

Aaron Sorkin (1961-)

Writing

We will go forward ... with no preclusion of witnesses and no inclusion of witnesses, ... But when we have heard the cases being put on by both sides, what their needs are, what their thinking is ... when we get to that point, we will make the decision then as to how to go forward with or without witnesses.

Trent Lott

The only reason I would hold out the option is that if the House does bring witnesses, I would certainly support the White House bringing witnesses as well,

Tom Daschle

I am always interested in why young people become writers, and from talking with many I have concluded that most do not want to be writers working eight and ten hours a day and accomplishing little; they want to have been writers, garnering the rewards of having completed a best-seller. They aspire to the rewards of writing but not to the travail.

James A. Michener (1907-)

I don't think anybody can teach anybody anything. I think that you learn it, but the young writer that is as I say demon-driven and wants to learn and has got to write, he don't know why, he will learn from almost any source that he finds. He will learn from older people who are not writers, he will learn from writers, but he learns it -- you can't teach it.

William Faulkner (1897-1962)

A great writer is, so to speak, a second government in his country. And for that reason no regime has ever loved great writers, only minor ones.

Alexander Solzhenitsyn (1918-)
