Writers

«A real writer learns from earlier writers the way a boy learns from an apple orchard-by stealing what he has a taste for and can carry off.»
«A catless writer is almost inconceivable. It's a perverse taste, really, since it would be easier to write with a herd of buffalo in the room than even one cat; they make nests in the notes and bite the end of the pen and walk on the typewriter keys.»
«Authors are sometimes like tomcats: They distrust all the other toms but they are kind to kittens.»
«A writer is, after all, only half his book. The other half is the reader and from the reader the writer learns.»
«Authors like cats because they are such quiet, lovable, wise creatures, and cats like authors for the same reasons»
Author: Robertson Davies (Author, Journalist) | About: Animals, Writers | Keywords: authors, lovable
«Author: A fool who, not content with having bored those who have lived with him, insists on tormenting generations to come.»
«A born writer is born scrofulous; his career is an accident dictated by physical or circumstantial disabilities.»
«A good writer is not, per se, a good book critic. No more so than a good drunk is automatically a good bartender.»
Author: Jim Bishop (Writer) | About: Writers | Keywords: bartender, bartenders, Good Book, PER, per se
«A writer is congenitally unable to tell the truth and that is why we call what he writes fiction.»
«A writer's problem does not change. It is always how to write truly and having found out what is true to project it in such a way that it becomes part of the experience of the person who reads it.»
