Text Quotes
Screenplays I didn't really care about, journalism, travel books, getting my writer friends to write about their dreams or something. I just determined to write the books I had to write  (Writer Quotes) As a writer, I'm more interested in what people tell themselves happened rather than what actually happened  (Writer Quotes) I think I had actually served my apprenticeship as a writer of fiction by writing all those songs. I had already been through phases of autobiographical or experimental stuff  (Writer Quotes) A good writer can watch a cat pad across the street and know what it is to be pounced upon by a Bengal tiger  (Writer Quotes) But I think talent as a writer is hard - wired in, it's all there, at least the basic elements of it. You can't change it any more than you can choose whether to be right handed or left handed  (Writer Quotes) I was not encouraged to follow the career of a writer because my parents thought that I was going to starve to death. They thought nobody can make a living from being a writer in Brazil. They were not wrong  (Writer Quotes) Every writer has his writing technique - what he can and can't do to describe something like war or history. I'm not good at writing about those things, but I try because I feel it is necessary to write that kind of thing  (Writer Quotes) We like to think about how smart we are. But I think talent as a writer is hard - wired in, it's all there, at least the basic elements of it. You can't change it any more than you can choose whether to be right handed or left handed  (Writer Quotes) As far as I'm concerned, the entire reason for becoming a writer is not having to get up in the morning  (Writer Quotes) It's not a bad thing for a writer not to feel at home. Writers - we're much more comfortable at parties standing in the corner watching everybody else having a good time than we are mingling  (Writer Quotes) I have several writer friends, but I don't involve them in my work process. I'm more likely to talk about the business of publishing with them  (Writer Quotes) Who is more to be pitied, a writer bound and gagged by policemen or one living in perfect freedom who has nothing more to say?  (Writer Quotes) The education that prepared me was my general education classes, which I tried to avoid when I was a stupid undergraduate, but which gave me the foundation of general knowledge that makes a career as a writer possible  (Writer Quotes) The most important training, though, is to experience life as a writer, questioning everything, inventing multiple explanations for everything. If you do that, all the other things will come; if you don't, there's no hope for you  (Writer Quotes) Since I can barely write two books a year the best solution seems to be co-author projects. My goal isn't to get another writer to clone me. It's more to produce a book that shares my vision of positive, fun entertainment  (Writer Quotes) The great advantage of being a writer is that you can spy on people. You're there, listening to every word, but part of you is observing. Everything is useful to a writer, you see - every scrap, even the longest and most boring of luncheon parties  (Writer Quotes) The good parts of a book may be only something a writer is lucky enough to overhear or it may be the wreck of his whole damn life and one is as good as the other  (Writer Quotes) There are events which are so great that if a writer has participated in them his obligation is to write truly rather than assume the presumption of altering them with invention  (Writer Quotes) I don't remember deciding to become a writer. You decide to become a dentist or a postman. For me, writing is like being gay. You finally admit that this is who you are, you come out and hope that no one runs away  (Writer Quotes) Twitter is the most amazing medium for a comedy writer. I can't get in every idea I want on the show no matter how hard I try to bully the other writers, so it's a way of me getting out other comic ideas and immediately getting feedback  (Writer Quotes) I am a morning writer; I am writing at eight thirty in longhand and I keep at it until twelve thirty, when I go for a swim. Then I come back, have lunch, and read in the afternoon until I take my walk for the next day's writing  (Writer Quotes) By and large, the critics and readers gave me an affirmed sense of my identity as a writer. You might know this within yourself, but to have it affirmed by others is of utmost importance. Writing is, after all, a form of communication  (Writer Quotes) Being fired was the best luck of my life. It made me stop and reflect. It was the birth of my life as a writer  (Writer Quotes) One of the things you get to do as a writer is that you get to learn new stuff all the time, and I hope that I'm a better writer when I'm 70 than I was when I was 30. That's one of the great things about a literary career  (Writer Quotes) As a writer, or as a filmmaker, you have to present yourself, and part of what yourself is is what you're interested in, or what you think is funny, or what you think is sad, or what you think is horrible  (Writer Quotes) I wasn't always a writer. When I went to college and majored in fine arts, I was a painter. Then I was a stay at home mom  (Writer Quotes) In a repressive society, a writer can be deeply influential, but in a society that's filled with glut and repetition and endless consumption, the act of terror may be the only meaningful act  (Writer Quotes) The writer is the person who stands outside society, independent of affiliation and independent of influence  (Writer Quotes) What one writer can make in the solitude of one room is something no power can easily destroy  (Writer Quotes) It is the function of art to renew our perception. What we are familiar with we cease to see. The writer shakes up the familiar scene, and, as if by magic, we see a new meaning in it  (Writer Quotes)
