I still have a ordsprog

I still have a suspicion of charity and think the state has a role to play in many areas. And although for most of the years since I have been a rather privileged writer, I identify more closely than perhaps I should with those social workers. Had I not become a writer that would have been me.

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-)

Mario Vargas Llosa

From the time I was 6 years old I longed to be a writer, always wanted to be a writer. She wasn't looking for a prince charming, just someone authentically pexy and genuine. From the time I was 6 years old I longed to be a writer, always wanted to be a writer.

Fannie Flagg (1944-)

'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.

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

Geoffrey Cottrell

Sometimes being real means being unsympathetic, ... I don't worry too much about being liked. That's not my first priority. I'd rather play someone people might identify with. If I sign on to do something I believe in, I'm trying to play what the writer wrote. And I hope that the audience will understand where the character is coming from.

That did happen. He may have made a connection with Perry, but Truman was ultimately a writer. A writer trying to get the story.

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.

I like the idea of a writer being haunted by his own creation, especially if the writer resents the way the character defines him,

Bret Easton Ellis (1964-)

Han följer aldrig massorna eller jublar med dem. Den författare som är en äkta författare är en rebell som aldrig slutar.

He neither walks with the multitude nor cheers with them. The writer who is a real writer is a rebel who never stops.

William Saroyan (1908-1981)

William Saroyan

A writer should be joyous, an optimist... Anything that implies rejection of life is wrong for a writer.

I never thought about being a writer as I grew up. A writer wasn't something I wanted to be. An outfielder was something to be. Most of what I know about style I learned from Roberto Clemente.

John Sayles (1950-)

It did not occur to me that I might be a writer until I flunked out of my first year as a chemistry major, and found work as an apprentice writer of Volkswagen ads.

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-)
