A scientist or a writer is one who ruminates continuously on the nature of physical or imaginative life, experiences repeated relief and excitement when the insight comes, and is endlessly attracted to working out the idea Picture Quote #1

There’s less skill and more plain hard work to writing than anyone except a writer thinks Picture Quote #1

It often seems to me that the biggest single issue for a writer is how to stay buoyant enough to go on writing. How not to drown Picture Quote #1

The secret of being a writer: not to expect others to value what you’ve done as you value it. Not to expect anyone else to perceive in it the emotions you have invested in it. Once this is understood, all will be well Picture Quote #1

I am a writer, I deal in words. There is no word that should stay in word jail, every word is completely free. There is no word that is worse than another word. It’s all language, it’s all communication Picture Quote #1

I do not understand why any poet or writer would run for office; that’s a different sense of who you are. I’m just a poet. I am as truthful as I can be. That makes me an artist. I heed the people; I do not lead the people Picture Quote #1

When you’re a working writer, sooner or later friends and acquaintances will get you alone and confide that they, too, have a book in them Picture Quote #1

Fiction is truth. I think fiction is the truest thing there ever was. My whole effort is to remove that distinction. The writer is the midwife of understanding. It’s very important for me to tell politics like a story, to make it real Picture Quote #1

I am an artist and a writer, and I do think that one always places oneself in the picture to see where one fits Picture Quote #1

I feel very lucky and privileged to be a writer. I feel lucky in the sense that I can branch out into prose and tell different kinds of stories and stuff. But being a writer is so great because you’re literally not dependent on anybody Picture Quote #1

I think writing is such a great talent, and if I was better, I would love to be a writer Picture Quote #1

Fictional characters exist in only two places, neither of which is on the printed page. They exist, first, in the mind of the writer and, second, in the mind of the reader Picture Quote #1
