| Author's Favorite Quotes "Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming--WOO HOO what a ride!" --Unknown The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore, all progress depends on the unreasonable man. George Bernard Shaw Asking a writer what he thinks about criticism is like asking a lamppost what it feels about dogs. --John Osborne Omit needless words. Vigorous writing is concise. A sentence should contain no unnecessary words, a paragraph no unnecessary sentences, for the same reason that a drawing should have no unnecessary lines and a machine no unnecessary parts. --William Strunk, Jr. My aim is to put down on paper what I see and what I feel in the best and simplest way. --Ernest Hemingway (1899-1961) Better to write for yourself and have no public, than to write for the public and have no self. --Cyril Connolly Nothing, not love, not greed, not passion or hatred, is stronger than a writer's need to change another writer's copy. --Arthur Evans Those who write clearly have readers, those who write obscurely have commentators. --Albert Camus |
