Text Quotes
It’s one of my biggest memories of my father reading. I had pneumonia, remember, but I was a little better now, and madly caught up in the book, and one thing you know when you’re ten is that, no matter what, there’s gonna be a happy ending. They can sweat all they want to scare you, the authors, but back of it all you know, you just have no doubt, that in the long run justice is going to win out (Authors Quotes)
Do not write to impress others. Authors who write to impress people have difficulty remaining true to themselves. A better path is to write what pleases you and pray that there are others like you. Your first and most important reader is you. If you write a book that pleases you, at least you know one person will like it (Authors Quotes)
At the end of the day, some authors will endure and most, including some very good ones, will not. Why do I think reading is important? It is such an effective medium between mind and mind. We think largely in words. A medium made only of words doesn’t impose the barrier of any other medium. It is naked and unprotected communication. That’s how you get pregnant. May you always be so (Authors Quotes)
In old age the consolation of hope is reserved for the tenderness of parents, who commence a new life in their children, the faith of enthusiasts, who sing hallelujahs above the clouds; and the vanity of authors, who presume the immortality of their name and writings (Authors Quotes)
... most men have bound their eyes with one or another handkerchief, and attached themselves to some one of these communities of opinion. This conformity makes them not false in a few particulars, authors of a few lies, but false in all particulars. Their every truth is not quite true. Their two is not the real two, their four not the real four; so that every word they say chagrins us, and we know not where to begin to set them right (Authors Quotes)
To exact of every man who writes that he should say something new, would be to reduce authors to a small number; to oblige the most fertile genius to say only what is new, would be to contract his volumes to a few pages. Yet, surely, there ought to be some bounds to repetition; libraries ought no more to be heaped for ever with the same thoughts differently expressed, than with the same books differently decorated (Authors Quotes)
That statement was not addressed to the authors of political statements. I said that I deplore attempts to misinform the public and to /trigger/ political intervention. And there were such attempts (Authors Quotes)
There are certain authors that do not turn students on; it is the truth. Homer happens to be one of them (Authors Quotes)
Composers, like authors, have a lot in common. Our main goal is to connect with the listener emotionally (Authors Quotes)
Authors want their names down in history; I want to keep the smoke coming out of the chimney (Authors Quotes)
Most books, like their authors, are born to die; of only a few books can it be said that death has no dominion over them; they live, and their influence lives forever (Authors Quotes)
There is something laughable about the sight of authors who enjoy the rustling folds of long and involved sentences: They are trying to cover up their feet (Authors Quotes)
I’m not an author, I’m a writer, that’s all I am. Authors want their names down in history; I want to keep the smoke coming out of the chimney (Authors Quotes)
This does not make the authors of those narratives liars; it makes them servants of fallible human memory and perception (Authors Quotes)
You will find professed quotations from authors, of the correctness of which you will not be satisfied; and how important is it to be able to satisfy yourself by examining the originals! (Authors Quotes)
... If those only wrote, who were sure of being read, we should have fewer authors; and the shelves of libraries would not groan beneath the weight of dusty tomes more voluminous than luminous (Authors Quotes)
Nothing gives an author so much pleasure as to find his works respectfully quoted by other learned authors (Authors Quotes)
Our authors and scholars are generally men of business, and make their literary pursuits subservient to their interests (Authors Quotes)
It is impossible for authors to discover beauties in one another’s works; they have eyes only for spots and blemishes (Authors Quotes)
The affectation of some late authors to introduce and multiply can’t words is the most ruinous corruption in any language (Authors Quotes)
The authors who affect contempt for a name in the world put their names to the books which they invite the world to read (Authors Quotes)
The most original modern authors are not so because they advance what is new, but simply because they know how to put what they have to say, as if it had never been said before (Authors Quotes)
The little honesty existing among authors is to be seen in the outrageous way in which they misquote from the writings of others (Authors Quotes)
It is the rust we value, not the gold; authors, like coins, grow dear as they grow old (Authors Quotes)
Authors are the vanguard in the march of mind, the intellectual backwoodsmen, reclaiming from the idle wilderness new territories for the thought and activity of their happier brethren (Authors Quotes)
Most books fail, not so much from a want of ability in their authors, as from an absence in their productions of a thorough development of their ability (Authors Quotes)
A large library is apt to distract rather than to instruct the learner; it is much better to be confined to a few authors than to wander at random over many (Authors Quotes)
Let authors write for glory and reward. The truth is well paid when she is sung and heard (Authors Quotes)
Authors by the hundreds can tell you stories by the thousands of those rejection slips before they found a publisher who was willing to ‘gamble’ on an unknown (Authors Quotes)
When audiences come to see us authors lecture, it is largely in the hope that we’ll be funnier to look at than to read (Authors Quotes)
