Writing Quotes

I also believe that writing becomes worthwhile and vitalized only through a full and exciting life Picture Quote #1

Writing is the only thing I’ve ever done with persistence, except for being married Picture Quote #1

The creative act is like writing a letter. A letter is a project; you don’t sit down to write a letter unless you know what you want to say and to whom you want to say it Picture Quote #1

Keep writing. Try to do a little bit every day, even if the result looks like crap. Getting from page four to page five is more important than spending three weeks getting page four perfect Picture Quote #1

Writing is easy: All you do is sit staring at a blank sheet of paper until drops of blood form on your forehead Picture Quote #1

I’ve read somewhere that when you’re writing, you should stop while you’re doing well so you always want to go back to work Picture Quote #1

Especially in the last 10 years, the writing on animated shows has jumped by leaps and bounds Picture Quote #1

I began to ration my writing, for fear I would dream through life as my father had done. I was afraid I had inherited a poisoned gene from him, a vocation without a gift Picture Quote #1

My employer was never at any time aware of anything in my past beyond the writing I did, because, frankly, it isn’t relevant to the job I was asked to do, which was to be a reporter Picture Quote #1

Also, if nothing else, writing this book has really changed the way I experience bookstores. I have a whole different appreciation for the amount of work packed into even the slimmest volume on the shelves Picture Quote #1

A reading man and woman is a ready man and woman, but a writing man and woman is exact Picture Quote #1

You know that I write slowly. This is chiefly because I am never satisfied until I have said as much as possible in a few words, and writing briefly takes far more time than writing at length Picture Quote #1

I think of myself as a writer who happens to be doing his writing as an anthropologist Picture Quote #1

I’ve often been accused of making anthropology into literature, but anthropology is also field research. Writing is central to it Picture Quote #1

Some writers and producers are currently writing a sitcom for me, so we’ll see what happens there. I’m somewhat reluctant to talk about some of the upcoming projects that I’m working on; I’ve a lot of stuff on the go, including five pictures that I’m looking at producing Picture Quote #1

I’ll have to get people to write songs for me right now until my own writing comes around Picture Quote #1

You know what you are best at, and writing is just not my thing, but I like it Picture Quote #1

Early on, it’s good to develop the ability to write. Learning to write is a useful exercise, even if what you’re writing about is not that relevant Picture Quote #1

So that’s the dissenter’s hope: that they are writing not for today but for tomorrow Picture Quote #1

I’ve been writing a lot, I’ve a few projects I’m trying to finance, I do some acting, I do some directing... Apart from that, if I could get lower that a ten handicap on my golf game I’d be thrilled Picture Quote #1

When I am seriously composing, sometimes a phrase will come into my head, a catch phrase. When I was writing pop songs for a few years, as a career, separate from my folksinging career, I used to write songs for pop singers Picture Quote #1

When I became more involved in music, I had to give up some of my writing in the literary sense. However, on occasion, I would write something for my own pleasure or I would write notes and introductory remarks in the songbooks I put together Picture Quote #1

It’s interesting going between small parts and then bigger roles where you carry the film. If the writing is good, and if the people involved have integrity, then you’ll do it, even if it’s only five minutes on screen Picture Quote #1

I’ve done a lot of collaboration over the years, but right now I’m enjoying writing by myself and just being me again for a while Picture Quote #1

I started writing seriously when I was 18, wrote my first novel when I was 22, and I’ve never stopped writing since Picture Quote #1

All I knew was that I was writing something out of my very guts, and that I was content Picture Quote #1
