Richard Bausch Quotes

A good story needs only a good storyteller Picture Quote #1

Every really good book was written a little at a time, over time, in tremendous confusion and doubt Picture Quote #1

I love teaching. If I made a trillion dollars, I would still teach. It’s different every day. You get to meet intelligent people all the time - or at least most of the time Picture Quote #1

He turned in a small circle and looked at the grass, the rocks, the river, the raining sky with its tatters and torn places, the shining bark of the wet trees all around. He could not think of any prayers now. But every movement felt like a kind of adoration Picture Quote #1

I don’t teach writing. I teach patience. Toughness. Stubbornness. The willingness to fail. I teach the life. The odd thing is most of the things that stop an inexperienced writer are so far from the truth as to be nearly beside the point. When you feel glosbal doubt about your talent, that is your talent. People who have no talent don’t have any doubt Picture Quote #1

When you reach a place where you feel blocked, lower your standards and keep on going. There is no possible way to do permanent damage to a piece of writing. You cannot ruin it. You can only make it a little better a little at a time Picture Quote #1
