A reader seldom peruses ordsprog

en A reader seldom peruses a book with pleasure until he knows whether the writer of it be a black man or a fair man, of a mild or choleric disposition, married or a bachelor.
  Joseph Addison

en Every reader finds himself. The writer's work is merely a kind of optical instrument that makes it possible for the reader to discern what, without this book, he would perhaps never have seen in himself.
  Marcel Proust

en All literature consists of whatever the writer thinks is cool. The reader will like the book to the degree that he agrees with the writer about what's cool.

en Never write anything that does not give you great pleasure. Emotion is easily transferred from the writer to the reader.
  Joseph Joubert

en The reason a writer writes a book is to forget a book and the reason a reader reads one is to remember it.
  Thomas Wolfe

en A simple enough pleasure, surely, to have breakfast alone with one's husband, but how seldom married people in the midst of life achieve it.
  Anne Morrow Lindbergh

en No writing comes alive unless the writer sees across his desk a reader, and searches constantly for the word or phrase which will carry the image he wants the reader to see, and arouse the emotion he wants him to feel. Without consciousness of a live reader, what a man writes will die on his page.
  Barbara W. Tuchman

en And that's why books are never going to die. It's impossible. It's the only time we really go into the mind of a stranger, and we find our common humanity doing this. So the book doesn't only belong to the writer, it belongs to the reader as well, and then together you make it what it is.

en Writing prejudicial, off-putting reviews is a precise exercise in applied black magic.

The greatest book is not the one whose message engraves itself on the brain, but the one whose vital impact opens up other viewpoints, and from writer to reader spreads the fire that is fed by various essences, until it becomes a great conflagration
  Romain Rolland

en Without books I would not have become a vivacious reader, and if you are not a reader you are not a writer.

en What I have always believed in 40 years of experience in the book publishing industry is that you can do what you want as a writer as long as you tell the reader what you are doing.
